Hi all,
I'm extremely happy to announce the release of pywin32 build 213 - the
first release of pywin32 with support for Python 3.x.
This release has a large number of changes and should, in general, be
considered BETA quality ...
I'm not sure if my BETA warning has put people off from trying it, but I
believe there hasn't been a single report of a regression in this build :)
So if I did put you off, please give it a go...
Cheers,
Mark
I'm using it, and love the Unicode support. It still has a problem with
backspacing over non-ascii characters such as Chinese in the editor, by
deleting byte-at-a-time instead of character-at-a-time. It will throw
exceptions in the interpreter window as the bytes are backspaced over. It
works fine in the interpreter window. I filed a bug and found and posted an
update that works for me, but may not be the best solution. I'm not
familiar with Scintilla.
I also noticed that the default encoding for saves is latin1 in both 2.x and
3.x versions. Shouldn't it be ascii for 2.x and utf8 for 3.x if a #coding
declaration isn't present? I like that the editor recognizes the #coding
line and saves in the requested encoding.
