Subject: non-ascii chars in cmd.exe (Windows)
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2020 22:39:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3d14155a-5976-67f9-ab0f-7edb5516d0b3@gmx.es> (raw)
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\startluacode
io.write(' Name? ')
document.name = io.read() or ''
\stopluacode
\cldcontext{document.name} is the name.
\stoptext
Running it on Linux, I can input non-ascii characters.
When running in Windows, if the input chars contains a non-ascii one,
document.name is empty.
I have no problem passing arguments from cmd with Unicode characters
(such as in '--arguments="name={αβγ}"'.
I’m using current latest (ConTeXt MkIV 2020.11.08 12:42).
I’m not sure what I am missing or whether I have hit a bug.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
