Excuse me

This is my first time use this bug report.

I have uploaded a jpg to show what I do.

The result is that a console will show and nothing happen.

This bug is ancient by now, but not fixed. I've reproduced the issue with a recent release of Python and the problem is an encoding exception in Objective-C:

2013-07-06 12:17:20.511 Python Launcher[43030:f0b] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSCharacterConversionException', reason: 'Conversion to encoding 30 failed for string "cd '/Users/ronald/X/..."'

That is because the Python Launcher tries to convert the string to ASCII, and that obviously doesn't work when the path contains Chinese characters. Fixing this should be easy enough, I expect to have a patch later today.

I've commit a fix for this problem in the branches for 2.7, 3.3 and the upcoming 3.4 release. This means the problem will be fixed in the next releases from those branches.
