Ini File Created in AHK In Python Is Unreadable

[roonyrooxcess]

Hey,

Im trying to read an AHK ini file in python, but its unreadable in python. I know you need some type of encoding to read the ini file in python. But im pretty new to python, so no idea where to start ...

Thanks!

Ive attached the file

DetectPress.ini

(472 Bytes) Downloaded 45 times

Code im using to create the ini file

Code: Select all

IniWrite, 0,  D:\12\Temp\DetectPress.ini, SellLow1, SellLow1

Code in Python

Code: Select all

from pathlib import Path

data_folder = Path("D:/12/Temp/")
file_to_open2=data_folder/"DetectPress.ini"

y2 = open(file_to_open2, "r")

print(y2.read())

DetectPress.ini

The INI file is in UTF-16 by default. A workaround is below.

Code: Select all

ini = %A_ScriptDir%\DetectPress.ini
FileRecycle, %ini%
FileAppend,, %ini%, CP0
IniWrite, 0,  %ini%, SellLow1, SellLow1

Explained: IniWrite

File encoding of CP0 uses the system default ANSI code page.
