Puzzled by code pages

I'm trying to process OpenStep plist files in Python. I have a parser which works, but only for strict ASCII. However plist files may contain accented characters - equivalent to ISO-8859-2 (I believe). For example I read in the line: >>> handle = open('file.txt', 'rb') >>> data = handle.read()
