Crash when printing on Windows PowerShell #228

Open EvanKirshenbaum opened 5 months ago

EvanKirshenbaum commented 5 months ago

When calling System.prompt_and_wait(), initiated by the manual_pipettor, the print(prompt) line, throws an exception when running under Windows PowerShell. It appears that the prompt contains some Unicode character (03b something, IIRC) and the window is expecting a different character set.

Everything works fine on the same machine when run from a normal Windows command window.

Note that lots of other things have been printed before this error (which happens in the dna_comb macro written for #215) on the PowerShell.
