It introduces high characters that cause comparisons to fail under IDLE
that succeed from the normal python prompt:
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import string
>>> u'a' in string.letters
True
IDLE 1.2.2
>>> import string
>>> u'a' in string.letters
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
u'a' in string.letters
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x83 in position
52: ordinal not in range(128)
Or am I misunderstanding how the locale works with string comparisons ?
