Issue 4410: IDLE string problem in Run/Run Module (original) (raw)

Python 3.0 rc3 on Windows (Server 2003 US English)

The code with a string including a non ascii character:

s = 'abçd' print (s)

is returning correct result in console mode and when it's typed in the IDLE Python Shell

But when executed from an IDLE editor window with Run/Run Module it prints 5 characters instead of 4.

With more details, the code:

s = 'abçd' print (s)

for i in range(len(s)): print(hex(ord(s[i])),end=' ')

gives in console mode:

abçd 0x61 0x62 0xe7 0x64

but with Run/Run Module:

abçd 0x61 0x62 0xc3 0xa7 0x64
