[issue19625] IDLE 2.7 should use UTF-8 as it's default encoding

2015-04-29 Thread Stéphane Wirtel 

Stéphane Wirtel added the comment:

On OS X and with IDLE 3, I get utf-8 with sys.stdout.encoding, not sure, 
but I think you have to check the default encoding on Windows.

What’s the result if you execute:

python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())'

[issue19625] IDLE 2.7 should use UTF-8 as it's default encoding

2015-04-29 Thread irdb 

irdb added the comment:

Although in Python 3 IDLE can indeed print UTF-8 characters. But still 
sys.stdout.encoding == locale.getpreferredencoding() != 'utf-8'.

 sys.stdout.encoding
'cp1256'

Shouldn't it be 'utf-8'?

On cmd and powershell:

python -c import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding());
utf-8
python -c import sys; print(sys.stdout.encoding);
cp720

In IDLE:
 import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding());
utf-8
 sys.stdout.encoding
'cp1256'

[issue19625] IDLE 2.7 should use UTF-8 as it's default encoding

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

For the benefit of anyone finding this in a search, I fixed the title to match 
the actual request.  UTF-8 *is* already the default encoding in 3.x, and 
upgrading to 3.x if at all possible is the best solution to unicode problems.
