    Apologies if this has been reported before; I couldn#T find it on a
    search but maybe I used the wrong search terms.

    When I try to run a script that is contained in a directory whose path
    contains non-ASCII characters (e. g. Umlauts), Python 3.0a4 crashes with
    the following error message:

    (Windows cmd console):
    E:\Eigene Dateien\Klinikum\Qualitätsmanagement\Qualitätsbericht
    2007>c:\programme\python30\python zaehle_aerzte.py
    Fatal Python error: no mem for sys.path insertion
    UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 33-35:
    invalid data

    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
    way.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information.

    Moving the script to a directory without Umlauts in the path "solves"
    the problem.

    Best regards,
    Tim

    I should perhaps add that this happened on a German Windows XP Pro SP2
    installation.
