New submission from Michal Niklas <mnik...@users.sourceforge.net>: I have strange error with source encoding header. I usually use it from template which looks like:
#!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf8 -*- This works well on Linux machines with Python 2.x and 3.x, but on Windows machines it works well only with Python 2.x. When I use Python 3.6 it often works, but for some sources interpreter reports: SyntaxError: encoding problem: utf8 It is easy to "correct": you can change "utf8" to "utf-8". Strange thing is that even on Windows with Python 3.6 it works well with the same source encoding header but with little edited source file. I tried to create simplest file that shows this error but works well when I delete one empty line.
