Oh. Thanks. $ unset LANG $ export PYTHONUTF8=1 $ python3 Python 3.7.5 (default, Dec 24 2019, 08:52:13) [GCC 4.8.5] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> machaine='ééééhelp me if you can' >>> From the code point of view: $ unset LANG $ unset PYTHONUTF8 $ python3 Python 3.7.5 (default, Dec 24 2019, 08:52:13) [GCC 4.8.5] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import os >>> os.environ['PYTHONUTF8'] = '1' >>> machaine='ééééhelp me if you can' >>> Even better: $ unset LANG $ unset PYTHONUTF8 $ python3 Python 3.7.5 (default, Dec 24 2019, 08:52:13) [GCC 4.8.5] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> machaine='ééééhelp me if you can' >>> Works as expected.
