Encoding issue

OS: Windows 10 21H2
Python: Python 3.10.4

Steps:

• pip install pyquotes

example.py (file is saved as UTF-8 with/without a BOM)

print('こんにちは世界')

• pyquotes example.py

    return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0]
UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x81 in position 11: character maps to <undefined>

If read_text() and write_text() are replaced with read_bytes() and write_bytes() equivalents, the quote processing is fixed (not tested on Linux). Although, additional new lines are erroneously added, I haven't had a chance to look into why.

Thank you for your time, this library has saved my many hours.

Is your default encoding UTF8? What does import sys; sys.getdefaultencoding() return?

Python 3.10.4 (tags/v3.10.4:9d38120, Mar 23 2022, 23:13:41) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys; sys.getdefaultencoding()
'utf-8'

Can you provide a git repo with your test file so I have the exact same content and not whatever I copy from the github issue?

Also, please pust full tracebacks, not just the last line...

For some weird reason it's using cp1252 instead of utf-8, even though utf-8 should be the default in Python 3...

[ThiefMaster]

after reading https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-597-use-utf-8-for-default-text-file-encoding/1819 and asking on IRC apparently text files default to whatever encoding the OS tells python to use... and of course on windows you seem to get random crap instead of consistent utf8 :)

PR welcome that forces utf8 there (read_text has an encoding arg), I have not much interest in windows to be honest, but if I get a good PR i don't mind fixing it

I'm not very familiar with GitHub's interface - apologies.

I have confirmed the issue is fixed, when implementing your suggestion.
cli.py:113 old_code = file.read_text(encoding='UTF-8')
cli.py:148 tmp_file.write_text(content, encoding='UTF-8')
