New submission from Romulo A. Ceccon:
The message for WindowsError is taken from the Windows API's
FormatMessage() function, following the OS language. Currently Python
does no conversion for those messages, so non-ASCII characters end up
improperly encoded in the console. For example:
>>> import os
>>> os.rmdir('E:\\temp')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
WindowsError: [Error 41] A pasta nÒo estß vazia: 'E:\\temp'
Should be: "A pasta não está vazia" [Folder is not empty].
Python could check what is the code page of the current output interface
and change the message accordingly.
