[Visualpython-users] Danish characters in titles

[Poul R. <Pou...@sk...>]

After upgrading to python 3.1 I cannot put Danish characters in display
titles in the same manner as before when I used \346\370\345\306\330\305
as æøåÆØÅ (not sure how the last 6 characters are displayed on your
screen unless it has been set up to display Danish characters...).

The print commands in the example below work but the title is far from
what I hope.

from visual import *

print("\346\370\345") #æøå
print("\306\330\305") #ÆØÅ
print(chr(230)+chr(248)+chr(229))#æøå
print(chr(198)+chr(216)+chr(197))#ÆØÅ

field=display(title="\346\370\345"+"\306\330\305"
              +chr(230)+chr(248)+chr(229)+chr(198)+chr(216)+chr(197),
