I'm just making my first steps with PythonCard and I think I like it.
However, I found that most string attributes are converted to 7-bit
ascii by the resource editor. This makes it impossible to use text
attributes with international characters like German Umlaute - they are
simply swallowed.
The culprit is the following code in resourceOutput.py:
if isinstance(value, unicode):
value = value.encode('ascii', 'ignore')
After removing it, everything seems to work fine (no matter whether I
have Unicode enabled wxpython installed or not). So is there any real
reason that this conversion takes place? Maybe only historical reasons?
