Yes I have a source code encoding line.
Here it is:

# -*- coding: utf_16 -*-

   Try "utf_8".

I am using WxPython.

And the error that I get about using utf-16 is:\

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in<module>
  File "z.py", line 2
SyntaxError: UTF-16 stream does not start with BOM

Which encoding are you saving your script in? Very few of the text
editors I've used save to UTF-16 by default.

   Most editors that will do Unicode save files as "utf-8".
Try that.
