Adam Bartoš added the comment: Recently, I was also hit by this when trying to autoset `sys.argv` to a list of Unicode string (see https://github.com/Drekin/win-unicode-console/issues/20#issuecomment-225638271 ).
It would be nice to have this fixed. It seems to me (I may be wrong) that every occurence of `isinstance(…, str)` is a potential bug in Python 2.7. Either it should be spelled out as `isinstance(…, bytes)` or there should be `isinstance(…, types.StringTypes)` or even `isinstance(…, unicode)`. ---------- nosy: +Drekin _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19570> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
