STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: This issue is a problem of units. The error text is an utf8 *byte* string and offset is a number of *bytes*. The goal is to get the text *width* of a *character* string. We have to: 1- convert offset from bytes number to character number 2- get the error message as (unicode) characters 3- get the width of text[:offset]
It's already possible to get (2) from the utf8 string, and code from ocean-city's patch (py3k_adjust_cursor_at_syntax_error_v2.patch) can be used for (3). The most difficult point is (1). I will try to implement that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2382> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
