I think your confusion comes from the use of the interactive mode. PEP 263 doesn't really apply to the interactive mode, hence the behavior in interactive mode is undefined, and may and will change across Python versions. Ideally, interactive mode should assume the terminal's encoding for source code, but that has not been implemented. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
