Hmmm... nope - my terminal encoding (according to Python) on WIndows
Vista x64 (with 32bit Python and a vanilla cmd) is cp850.

C:\compile>C:\Python30\python.exe
Python 3.0 (r30:67507, Dec  3 2008, 20:14:27) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
(Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> '\u20ac'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python30\lib\io.py", line 1491, in write
    b = encoder.encode(s)
  File "C:\Python30\lib\encodings\cp850.py", line 19, in encode
    return codecs.charmap_encode(input,self.errors,encoding_map)[0]
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\u20ac' in
position
1: character maps to <undefined>

Oh well. (The traceback I posted was from Max OS X 10.5 - I didn't dig
closely enough to see that a different encoding was being used on
Windows, my bad - and thanks for the tip about ascii() ).
