tcl
The possible workaround is for Idle to translate "💩" to "\U0001f4a9"
(10 chars) before sending it to tk.
But some perspective. In the console interpreter:
>>> print("\U0001f4a9")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Programs\Python34\lib\encodings\cp437.py", line 19, in encode
return codecs.charmap_encode(input,self.errors,encoding_map)[0]
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\U0001f4a9'
in posit
ion 0: character maps to <undefined>
So what is broken? Windows Command Prompt.
More perspective. tk/Idle *will* print *something* for every BMP char.
Command Prompt will not. It does not even do ucs-2 correctly. So
which is more broken? Windows Command Prompt. Who has perhaps
1,000,000 times more resources, Microsoft? or the tcl/tk group? I think
we all know.
