Nice catch! Yeah, I am stuck on the encoding mechanism as well. I know how to encode/decode...but not what encoding to use. Is there a reference that I can look up to find what encoding that would correspond to? I know what the character looks like if that helps. I know that Python does display the correct character sometimes, but not sure when or why.
