all oletools - exception when opening filenames with unicode chars on Win10 with Python 2

[decalage2]

On Windows 10 with Python 2.7, when opening a filename containing unicode chars from the console, the following exception is raised by olefile:

IOError: [Errno 22] invalid mode ('rb') or filename: '...'

The same file works fine with Python 3.

It looks like the issue is not with oletools nor optparse/argparse, but due to the fact that sys.argv on Python 2 for Windows does not support unicode. win-unicode-console provides a solution:

_Similarly to the input from from sys.stdin the arguments in sys.argv are also bytes on Python 2 and the original ones may not be reconstructable. To overcome this we add unicode_argv module. The function unicode_argv.get_unicode_argv returns Unicode version of sys.argv obtained by WinAPI functions GetCommandLineW and CommandLineToArgvW. The function unicodeargv.enable monkeypatches sys.argv with the Unicode arguments.

Adding the following lines seems to fix the issue:

import win_unicode_console
win_unicode_console.enable(use_unicode_argv=True)
