[New-bugs-announce] [issue8470] Let cmd.cmd.intro be unicode friendly

[phep]

New submission from phep <patrice.pillot at teletopie.net>:

Since cmd.cmdloop() says:

# ...
self.stdout.write(str(self.intro)+"\n")
# ....

one cannot use unicode characters in cmd.cmd.intro, for example the copyright (©) character (u'\xa9').

TIA
