I'm trying to search for a string in a file. I don't know why there |
| 17 |
needs to be any conversion going on. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Just running python3 in interactive mode, I can input the literal when |
| 20 |
the locale is right: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
12/lcl/data/f/b>LC_ALL=de_DE python3 |
| 23 |
Python 3.7.9 (default, Nov 16 2020, 00:32:07) |
| 24 |
[GCC 9.3.0] on linux |
| 25 |
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. |
| 26 |
Could not open PYTHONSTARTUP |
| 27 |
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: |

>>> s = "gebuchte Umsätze" |
| 30 |
>>> print (s) |
| 31 |
gebuchte Umsätze |
| 32 |
>>> |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
but it doesn't work from within my pgm... |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
With python2, I presume there was conversion going on because ... a |
| 37 |
string can't have unicode chars, so it must be a unicode string that has |
| 38 |
to be decoded. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
tgt = unicode ('gebuchte Umsätze;'.decode ('latin1')) |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
But python3 is supposed to make all that superfluous ... I thought that |
| 43 |
was a major driving factor for python3 ... that everything was unicode, |
| 44 |
conversion wouldn't be necessary. |
