The underlying OS primitive can only handle bytes. If you read or write a

Have you considered including an encoding line at the top of your file, as
described in PEP 0263:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/
I just ran into a similar error, but it went away when I included
# coding: utf-8
as the first line in my file.

Because the variables aren't set.
The default locale for a particular category (e.g. LC_CTYPE) is taken from
$LC_ALL if that is set, otherwise $LC_CTYPE, otherwise $LANG,

I don't understand why I'm getting an encode error in python 3.1.

You should be setting the terminal encoding administratively, not
programmatically.
