New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com>:
As mentioned in msg380552: I get an SyntaxError with message "utf-8' codec
can't encode characters in position 7-12: surrogates not allowed." when I paste
a smiley emoji in an IDLE interactive shell and try to execute that line, for
example using:
>>> print("😀")
The error is likely due to a surrogate pair being present in the UTF-8
representation of a Tcl/Tk string.
It should be possible to work around this in
_tkinter.c:unicodeFromTclStringAndSize by merging surrogate pairs.
This is with:
- Python 3.10
- macOS 11 (arm64)
- Tk 8.6.10
With Tk 8.6.8 (as included in the macOS installers on python.org) printing
won't work at all, as mentioned in bpo-42225.
