[docs] [issue18870] eval() uses latin-1 to decode str

R. David Murray added the comment: I don't think it is even "won't fix". Your "workarounds" are just the way you need to feed non-latin1 text into Python2. Since the default source encoding in python2 is latin-1, and that is documented, I'm not sure what additional documentation you want? ---------- assignee: -> docs@python components: +Documentation nosy: +docs@python, r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18870> _______________________________________
