-----------------
-- The repr() function for 8-bit strings now preserves all characters
- that are considered printable in the current locale. (Previously,
- all bytes that are not printable ASCII would be encoded in hex.)
- This requires the user to set the current locale; in the initial "C"
- locale the old behavior is maintained. [SF patch 479898]
-
- Unicode file name processing for Windows (PEP 277) is implemented.
All platforms now have an os.path.supports_unicode_filenames attribute,
which is set to True on Windows NT/2000/XP, and False elsewhere.
