With Python 2.7.11 on Windows 7 my users cannot open/read files with
non-ASCII filenames. They use the Windows explorer to drag&drop files into
a console window running the Python program.
os.path.exists() does not detect such a file and an open() fails, too.
My code:
print("\nDrag&drop files or directories into this window.")
system('explorer "%s"' % HOME)
file = get_paste()
if not(os.path.exists(file)): die('"%s" does not exist' % file)
def get_paste():
import msvcrt
while True:
c = msvcrt.getch()
if c == '\t': return ''
if c == '\003' or c == '\004': return None
if not (c == '\n' or c == '\r'): break
paste = c
while msvcrt.kbhit():
c = msvcrt.getch()
if c == '\n' or c == '\r': break
paste += c
if match(r'\s',paste): paste = subst('^"(.+)"$',r'\1',paste)
return paste
