Yes... I, myself, am italian, and I found no problem in using accented letter (òèàìù). Since you say there's a problem as well in Nautilus and other Ubuntu software, I suppose there's something wrong with your linux setup, not with Python. Or, at least: you should try solving that problem first, then check what happens with python. Try appending this options in your fstab as hda1 mount options: iocharset=iso8859-15 unmount & remount and check what does happen. -- Alan Franzoni <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Togli .xyz dalla mia email per contattarmi.
