A few locale issues I've run across:
Python 2.4.2 (#67, Sep 28 2005, 12:41:11) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.getpreferredencoding()
'cp1252'
>>> locale.getlocale()
(None, None)
>>> import _locale
>>> _locale._getdefaultlocale()
('en_ZA', 'cp1252')
IronPython 1.0.2408 on .NET 2.0.50727.42
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.getpreferredencoding()
''
>>> locale.getlocale()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File , line 0, in <stdin>##19
File c:\program files\python24\lib\locale.py, line 365, in getlocale
File c:\program files\python24\lib\locale.py, line 278, in _parse_localename
ValueError: unknown locale: en_ZA
>>> import _locale
>>> _locale._getdefaultlocale()
('en-ZA', '')
Looks like ipy and cpython are not on the same wavelength.
