With Python 3.1.1, the following batch file seems to be necessary to use UTF-8 successfully from an XP console: set PYTHONIOENCODING=UTF-8 cmd /u /k chcp 65001 set PYTHONIOENCODING= exit the cmd line seems to be necessary because of Windows having compatibility issues, but it seems that Python should notice the cp65001 and not need the PYTHONIOENCODING stuff.
