{{{Running Python with a default encoding other than ASCII is a bug in the way you are running Python. It is not intended that people should change the default encoding.}}} That's maybe a bit harsh? Changing the default encoding is common practise - for example, it's detailed in the well-known 'Dive Into Python' book.[[BR]] Likewise, if I search on google's french page for 'python unicode', within the first 5 hits, 2 include explanations on how to change the default encoding.
