| I have installed python 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.10 yesterday and played around with the new unicode features and had no problems with Japanese characters(both in interactive and script mode). However, after rebooting, IDLE will no longer let me input any Japanese characters. (I have it set to UFT-8, if it makes any difference anymore) The terminal works fine. It lets me input Japanese and runs commands correctly. So I used gedit and saved a simple print("Hello(in Japanese chars)"), and run it with IDLE 3.0 but I get a blank line >>>. (Can I also make sure that I'm opening IDLE correctly? This is how I do it: 1)Open Terminal 2)~$ Python.3.0 3)>>> input idlelib.idle Thank You in advance. |

| I can't seem to reproduce that, maybe it could be a tk issue ? Can you try writing anything (that doesn't work on IDLE) on a tkinter.Text widget to see if it shows there ? You could use this code below: from tkinter import Text text = Text() print(text.tk.call('info', 'patchlevel')) text.focus_set() text.pack() text.mainloop() |

| I've installed Python 3.1.1 on OSX today. 1) When I use the Japanese input from OSX, IDLE interprets any character I attempt to type as a space. 2) When I paste a Japanese string from a different place, it is correctly handled. For ex: >>> print('ここ') ここ >>> While on Python 2.5's IDLE I had: >>> print('ここ') Unsupported characters in input >>> by default. In any case, IDLE 3.1.1 does not respect the input source and that makes it impossible to directly type Japanese (if not other double byte character based languages). Note: IDLE respect OSX dead keys and I can correctly use "Alt+c" to input "ç". |

| For now unicode BMP has full support in TK while non-BMP characters doesn't works. 'こ' character is BMP symbol: >>> hex(ord('こ')) '0x3053' which is lesser than non-BMP space (starting from 0x10000). I have no idea why alt-c doesn't converted to 'ç' (also BMP by the way) and why it has been processed by Helary's IDLE. I have no any Mac box nearby to check. Sure, 'alt-c' is minor problem if this is problem at all. |

| I close this issue because: - current 3.2 and upcoming 3.3 support Japanese characters very well. - there are problems with non-BMP characters not supported currently but it's another issue. See progress of #14200 and others for non-BMP. |

| I would say that alt-c is not a problem at all, but, some people might use 'ç' more that me, (I never have used 'ç' spesificaly) |

| To add to the other comments, problems with input methods using Python 3 and Tkinter or IDLE are usually platform-specific issues with the implementation of Tk. In particular, the issue Jean-Christophe reported with Python 3.1.1 was very likely due to its use of the old Tk 8.4 (at least with the python.org installer). Current versions of Python 3.2.x for OS X 10.6+ link with the newer Tk 8.5, the very latest releases of which by ActiveState contain important fixes for input methods using composite characters (http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ has the most up-to-date information). Also, note to the original poster, you either made a typo in the bug report ("UFT-8" - it should be "UTF-8") or, if you actually tried that locale, it might explain why you had problems. If someone can reproduce a problem with a current Python 3.2.x or later, please re-open with details. |

| Daniel Swanson, maybe my was not obvious. You can use 'ç' without any problem in IDLE — it is BMP character. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapping_of_Unicode_characters for details. tkinter has full support for 'Basic Multilingual Plane' while last planes still has a problems. |
