Hi All,

Was wishing to try out ranwhen.py on Slackware 14.0 32 bit KDE, have been installing it and Python 3 too (SlackBuild) but the terminal gives back the following output:

Quote:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ranwhen.py", line 267, in <module>
style_text(" days", fgcolor = time_text_color) + ")")
UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode character '\u2013' in position 59: ordinal not in range(256)

Please, someone knows how to solve the issue? Thank you.

@Ponce: thank you very much for your kind help, I appreciate.

Edit
Same result with:
$ LANG=it_IT.utf8 python3 ranwhen.py

The graphical issue is solved too selecting "UTF8" to the terminal profile
