': undefined method `default_encoding' for Encoding:Class (NoMethodError) Sorry, it's a typo, should be `Encoding.default_external`. And is the environment variable `RUBYOPT` set? ---------------------------------------- Bug #18353: Czech keyboard input encoding on czech Windows https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18353#change-94814 * Author: koleq (Ond��ej Kurz) * Status: Feedback * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.0.2p107 (2021-07-07 revision 0db68f0233) [x64-mingw32] * Backport: 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Inputing czech characters in czech Windows does not work unless "`text.force_encoding("CP852")`" is used, I would be expecting for this to work seemlesly just like it does in python This issue also does not happen in WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) where is just works without encoding issues. To test you can run this code and copy the "`������������������`" and paste it, you will see the fisrt print works just fine but you input does not. I do not know if it's reproduceble on another language version of Windows. **Ruby** ``` ruby puts("������������������") text = gets # input.force_encoding("CP852") this line fixes the input, but probably not the best solution if other windows languages use another code page. puts(text) ``` output: ``` ������������������ ������������������ ������������������ ``` "```text.encoding```" returns "```UTF-8```" "```text.bytes.inspect```" returns "```[216, 231, 159, 253, 167, 236, 160, 161, 130, 10]```" **Python 3** ``` python print("������������������") text = input() print(text) ``` output: ``` ������������������ ������������������ ������������������ ``` I don't know how to check encoding or return bytes of the current encoding in python. I was told on Ruby discord that my terminal is misconfigured but that is not the case, it does it in multiple terminals and I can't be expecting users to be changing their terminal settings. other languages like Python or C# do not seem to have this issue. I wonder what python does to ge around encoding issues on Czech Windows. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
