Thank you for the reply, Adrian. I do not find PYTHONIOENCODING in either
environment. Could it be the SPYDER_ENCODING environment variable that's
causing the behavior?
Running [(k,v) for k, v in os.environ.items() if 'utf' in v.lower() or
'ascii' in v.lower()] in Spyder gives me
[('SPYDER_ENCODING', 'UTF-8')]
while when I run the same command from a Python shell created from the
terminal I get
[('LANG', 'en_US.UTF-8')]
