Windows 7: "Errors occurred" when users with unicode characters close namebench #65

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have an umlaut in your username
2. Run namebench
3. Close it when you are done

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Nothing. No errors

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "libnamebench\better_webbrowser.pyc", line 91, in open
  File "subprocess.pyc", line 621, in __init__
  File "subprocess.pyc", line 830, in _execute_child
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 
12: ordinal not in range(128)

--------------------------------------------------------
The weird thing is, that we do everything we can at the moment to catch 
these exceptions. Even putting webbrowser.open in a thread does not 
defeat this issue.

I believe this was fixed in version 1.2.
