Hi, I am trying to create a .po file to start a translation. I use the
command './manage.py makemessages -l ru' to try to create the Russian
locale. The script seems to be working for a while and then crashes with:
processing language ruTraceback (most recent call last):

So I have been looking for non ascii characters in the templates of this
project and indeed there are quite a lot of them.
Now my question is, if it really is a problem with non ascii characters in
template files, then what can I do about those characters? Is there a way
to mark a template file as utf8 as in a .py script? Or what am I missing?
thanks!
