>>> print(sys.stdout.encoding) utf8 That's what I was expecting. However when I add that to my web log output I get this: get_recipe() PYTHONIOENCODING: None get_recipe() encoding: 646 Dang! I was sure that I fixed that. I have this in my Apache configuration: SetEnv PYTHONIOENCODING utf8 I guess I have an Apache problem now, not a Python one. The strange thing is that this was a fix for a similar problem I asked about and it worked. Isn't there some way that I can just set the default encoding to utf8 for every Python program? Googling suggests that I can't do that but that doesn't see right. Since utf8 includes ASCII why wouldn't it be the default anyway? -- D'Arcy J.M.
