New submission from Robert Sjöblom <robert.sjoblom at gmail.com>:
I'm on a cp932-encoded system. When I read in a cp1252-file, it's read into memory properly, but when printing it, Python tries to encode the output to cp932. Here's the relevant code:
address = "C:/Path/to/file/file.ext"
with open(address, encoding="cp1252") as alpha:
print(line, end="")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python32\parser.py",
line 8, in <module>
print(line)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'cp932' codec can't encode character '\xe9' in
position 13: illegal multibyte sequence
Shouldn't the output be in unicode?
