New submission from Erick Tryzelaar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hello,
I noticed that doing "pydoc3.0 hashlib" was throwing this exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/local/bin/pydoc3.0", line 5, in <module>
pydoc.cli()
File
"/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/lib/python3
.0/pydoc.py", line 2237, in cli
help.help(arg)
File
"/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/lib/python3
.0/pydoc.py", line 1714, in help
elif request: doc(request, 'Help on %s:')

File
"/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/lib/python3

pipe.write(text)
File
"/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/lib/python3

b = encoder.encode(s)
File
"/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/lib/python3
.0/encodings/mac_roman.py", line 19, in encode
return codecs.charmap_encode(input,self.errors,encoding_table)[0]
This problem is coming from this block of text:
>>> import hashlib
>>> m = hashlib.md5()
>>> m.update(b"Nobody inspects")
>>> m.update(b" the spammish repetition")
>>> m.digest()
b'\xbbd\x9c\x83\xdd\x1e\xa5\xc9\xd9\xde\xc9\xa1\x8d\xf0\xff\xe9'
Specifically, the last line. It seems that pydoc is interpreting the
last line as a unicode string, and then when it tries to print it out on
my mac it errors out.
