Install the codecs. In Debain, you can do : apt-get install python-cjkcodecs
Then, it is easy to encode ( I use 'gb2312' ) : str = '我们' u = unicode(str,'gb2312') The convertion is done and you can get the string of UTF-8: str_utf8 = u.encode("utf-8") You can get the original string: str_gb = u.encode("gb2312") GM 写道: > Dear all, > > Could you all give me some guide on how to convert my big5 string to > unicode using python?
