Hi all, first of all, I have to say I have hardly no knowledge about that issue.
on the program there, I have it like that: ,------------------------------------------------------- | obj = unicode(newcomment, 'utf-8') | newcomment = obj.encode('latin-1') | | pipe = subprocess.Popen(tot, stdout=subprocess.PIPE,\ | stderr=subprocess.PIPE, shell=False) `--- that seems to work with that construction above. Then I think, 'what' kind of encoding I can send to an external program, depends also on that program? Or on the environment? If, then how could I get that environemnt? (the programs runs also under MS windows) Well, maybe someone has some hints about encodings issues like that, and what I can send to external commands? thanks a lot calmar -- calmar (o_ It rocks: LINUX + Command-Line-Interface //\ V_/_ http://www.calmar.ws -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
