Hi, I'm puzzled by the character encodings which I get when I use Python with IDLE. The string '\xf6' represents a letter in the Swedish alphabet when coded with utf8. On our computer with MacOSX this gets coded as '\xc3\xb6' which is a string of length 2. I have configured IDLE to encode utf8 but it doesn't make any difference.
This works fine on my PC with WinXP but other things are strange there. When I write a documentation for my functions in Swedish it gets completely mashed up. Regards/Robert
