You don't say what version of Python you use, and you don't show either
the code or the error traceback. So we can only guess what your problem is.
I'll assume you're using Python 2.6 or 2.7, running on Windows, and that
you have code like the following: I'll also assume you've solved the
source file encoding issues that pertain to string literals.
....
#mystrings is a list of Unicode strings with some non-ascii characters
in one or more of them
outfile = open(filename, "w")
outfile.writelines(mystrings)
If you replace the open with
outfile = codecs.open(filename,'wb','utf-8-sig')
you should correctly write the unicode as utf8 strings to the file.
