I am using Eclipse to write my python scripts and when i run them from inside
eclipse they work fine without errors.
But almost in every script that handle some form of special characters like
swedish åäö and chinese characters etc i get Unicode errors when running the
script externally with

Are you sure you are writing the same data? That would mean that pydev
changes the default encoding -- which is evil.
A portable approach would be to use codecs.open() or io.open() instead of
the built-in:
import io
with io.open(filepath, a) as f:
...
What encoding is this file? Since you're appending to it, you really
need to match the pre-existing encoding, or the next program to deal
with it is in big trouble. So using the io.open() without the encoding=
keyword is probably a mistake.
The .txt file is in UTF-8
I have got it
You don't show the code that actually does the io.open(), nor the
url.encode, so I'm not going to guess what you're actually doing.
Hmm im not sure what you mean but I wrote all code needed in a previous post so
maybe you missed that one :)
In short I basically just have:
import io
Thanks a lot Steven, you gave me a good AHA experience! :)
Now I understand why I had to use encoding when calling the urllib2! So
basically Eclipse PyDev does this in the background for me, and its console
supports utf-8, so thats why i never had to think about it before (and why some
