[docs] [issue17110] sys.argv docs should explaining how to handle encoding issues

Sreepriya Chalakkal added the comment: I tried running with Python 3.4 the following code import sys print(sys.argv[1]) print(b'bytes') And I ran as follows trying to run with a different encoding. $ python ~/a.py `echo priya|iconv -t latin1` priya bytes There was no unicode encode error generated! Is it because the problem is fixed? ---------- nosy: +sreepriya _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17110> _______________________________________
