Two errors: - first error is that Unicode strings in Python 2 need to be written as unicode objects, with a "u" prefix in the delimiter: # ASCII byte string: "Hello World" # Unicode string: u"මේක ත" ASCII strings "..." cannot give you the right results except by accident. You must use unicode strings u"..." - Second possible problem: using Windows, which may not support the characters you are trying to use. I don't know -- try it and see. If it still doesn't work, then blame Windows. I know that Linux and Mac OS X both use UTF-8 for filenames, and so support all of Unicode. But Windows, I'm not sure. It might be localised to only use Latin-1 (Western European) or similar. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
