WxGUI CMD fails if command contains non-latin letters

[marisn]

If I enter some command in WxGUI CMD prompt that contains non-latin letters, I get ugly Python error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Program
Files/GRASS-64-SVN/etc/wxpython/wxgui.py", line 462, in
OnRunCmd

cmd = shlex.split(str(cmdString))
UnicodeEncodeError
:
'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0160' in position
55: ordinal not in range(128)

Tested on WinGRASS WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r41428-1 running Vista

The problem here is the fact that shlex does not support unicode...

Quick workaround implemented in r41459.

Please try out r45549 (trunk or devbr6)

Still fails.

Some decoding stuff has been backported to 6.4/6.5, is this still an issue?

Can't test it, as now it fails somewhere in parser with "Sorry <> is not a valid option". Will have to open a new ticket for it at first.

[marisn]

Works now for me on Linux with UTF-8 locale. Complaints about "not valid option" are another issue.
