If you execute: print "some chinese characters", do you get the right
results?
Are you sure your system is using gb2312? In case you don't know and don't
trust autodetection, try something like this:
py> from unicodedata import *
py> name("á".decode("latin-1"))
'NO-BREAK SPACE'
py> name("á".decode("cp850"))
'LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH ACUTE'
The first attempt shows the wrong name, so my console *cannot* be using
latin-1. With cp850 I got the right results, so it *might* be cp850 (it
may also be another encoding that happens to match this single character).
Further tests may reveal that it is actually cp850.
You should try with "some chinese characters" and see if your encoding is
actually gb2312.
