But actually I was wondering if I could go around this (e.g. not
explicitly mention u"""<docstring>""") without modifying the source
code on my installation as I did.
You shouldn't. To understand what encoding a str docstring has, one has
to parse the source file and find the # encoding: blah line to .decode()
the str to unicode.
You can try it yourself:
#encoding: utf8
print len("ü") # 2
print len(u"ü") # 1
#encoding: iso8859-9
print len("ü") # 1
print len(u"ü") # 1
you must make sure to save the files in noted encodings or use iconv to
convert them to get the same result.
Best,
Burak
