Python 3 handles strings with two different types.
expects
type(data)to be<class 'str'>and not <class 'bytes'>, so we have to tell how to decode bytes to str. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/21689447/822644To handle non-latin letters, such as "č", some modifications had to be done in Javascript wrapper as well.
btoaandatobboth expect only latin letters. Usual trick is to useunescape(encodeURIComponent(letters))inatobanddecodeURIComponent(escape(bytes))inbtoa.
