Is there a way around this problem? My character set in Linux is ISO-8859-1. In Windows 2000 it should be the equivavent Latin-1, though I'm not sure about which character set the command shell is using.
The unicode methods seems to do it correctly. So you can decode your strings as unicode, do the transfom, and encode it back as latin1.
print repr('før'.decode('latin-1').upper().encode('latin-1')) #
'F\xd8R'
print repr('FØR'.decode('latin-1').encode('latin-1')) 'F\xd8R'
