Using non-ASCII characters in an optparse help string also causes UnicodeDecodeErrors. Here's the relevant part of the traceback: File "/home/spk30/opt/ActivePython-2.5/lib/python2.5/optparse.py", line 1655, in print_help file.write(self.format_help().encode(encoding, "replace")) NB. Adding an encoding declaration at the beginning of the python script which used a non-ASCII character in an optparse help string didn't solve the problem.
