You did everything correctly; I can reproduce the problem. The source of the problem is that Python does not support the EUC-TW encoding. Unless a codec for that encoding is contributed, there is no chance to run Python 3 in that locale. Python 3.1 will abort execution with the error message Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams LookupError: unknown encoding: EUC-TW Regards, Martin
