Using regional characters about sudo-prompt

[dulebap]

It works now. I've tried adding chcp 65001 in wrong place, by myself in that case.
Thanks for that fix.

Thanks @dulebap

Could you provide me with a bare minimum test script to reproduce?

Is your Windows setup custom configured (e.g. your shell encoding setup)?

While we are at it, would you mind checking if this is Windows only or can you find a way to reproduce this on other platforms?

[dulebap]

I didn't changed anything in shell encoding setup. I have Windows 10 with display language English,but with Polish(Programmers) Keyboard layout. My Powershell and cmd has 852 (OEM - Latin II) code page set as default (as I said I didn't changed settings myself).
The bare minimum test script to reproduce is for example
var sudo = require('sudo-prompt');
sudo.exec("'C:\sampleFolderą\sampleProgram.exe'", function(error, stdout, stderr) {
console.log(error);
});
It is important to put some regional letter like "ą" in path.

I can try to reproduce this error on Mac later, or check how it works on Win 7 and Win 8. I let you know as soon as I manage to do so.

[dulebap]

On Win 7 and Win 8 behaviour is the same as on Win 10. Tomorrow I should have possibility to test it on Mac. Have you managed to reproduce error on your side?

[jorangreef]

Thanks @dulebap

I can reproduce on my side on Windows 10 at least.

Can you create a plain .bat file with the following contents (or your actual command) and post the results?

C:\sampleFolderą\sampleProgram.exe

So above your .bat file contains only a single command (sampleProgram.exe). I think this is the bare minimum test case to reproduce.

Thanks @jorangreef

When encoding of command.bat was set to ansii I got:
C:\sampleFolder╣\sampleProgram.exe
The system cannot find the path specified.

When encoding was set to utf-8:
C:\sampleFolder─ů\sampleProgram.exe
The system cannot find the path specified.

When I set encoding in Notepad++ to OEM 852 the command runs fine. It means that probably when I tried to encode command generated by sudo-prompt to OEM 852 something went wrong?

[jorangreef]

Great, try the same .bat file but this time add this line at the top of the .bat file (as the first line):

chcp 65001

[dulebap]

I've got:
C:\praca>chcp 65001
Active code page: 65001

C:\praca>\sampleFolderą\sampleProgram.exe 9002 "C:\sampleFolderą"
It looks like it works fine in that case (utf-8 encoding in bat file).

[jorangreef]

Thanks for your help with testing. I will have a fix soon.
