[wingide-users] Mercurial and UTF-8

[Adi J. Sieker]

Hi,

just for Info. I raised a bug a while back about Wing reporting that my 
mercurial commits fail although they actually suceed. Since that also 
might have something todo with it. Here is what my Wing interpreter and 
the standard interpreter return.

adi at mini:~$ /usr/lib/wingide4.0/bin/PyCore/python

Could not find platform independent libraries<prefix>

Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to<prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]

'import site' failed; use -v for traceback

Python 2.5.5 (r255:77872, Dec  8 2010, 14:40:32)

[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>>  import sys

>>>  sys.getfilesystemencoding()

>>>  sys.getdefaultencoding()

'ascii'

>>>  

adi at mini:~$ python

Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Apr 16 2010, 13:09:56)

[GCC 4.4.3] on linux2

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>>  import sys

>>>  sys.getfilesystemencoding()

'UTF-8'

>>>  sys.getdefaultencoding()

'ascii'

>>>
