That would be a Notepad++ problem. That "" gibberish is what you get when a Unicode BOM (Byte Order Mark) character is encoded as UTF-8 but decoded as ISO-8859-1 or CP-1252. A BOM is not recommended for UTF-8 text; there should be some setting in Notepad++ to suppress it. Cheers, Chris -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
