RE: change-svn-wc-format.py and double byte chars?

Hi, yes the link mentions it.

My problem is that the WC convert script says that it Converted WC at 'pathtomyfolder/(r)Hw' when in fact there's a completely other string there
in this case (r)Hw = 'jap character'RT. So the script gives me a false positive about the conversion on my Leopard system.

The last post in the thread (see below) does however not seem to be solving the matter.
