[issue7496] python does not work in command prompt

Brett Cannon br...@python.org added the comment:

Your OS is using an encoding called cp720 which Python knows nothing 
about. That means it can't open stdout, stderr, or stdin properly for 
reading/writing according to your set codec. You need to use a codec 
recognized by Python or add support for your codec to allow it to run.
