Hi Francis, hi list,

just a very quick note to mention that I've been having the same issue
recently with a rest/docutils web tool, rest2web. I though the issue
was caused by rest2web.

Francis: are you using MacOSX? I've discovered that I've the same
error message with docutils + rest2web on MacOSX, but the exact same
source, on the same filesystem () on Debian (with a virtual machine +
the same directory mounted as a share) runs perfectly OK. It still
puzzles me.

Dear list:

- I've check a hundred times, my files are 100% Unicode. A local
Python guru wrote for me a little script to check that :)
- I've carefully set up MacOSX to use UTF-8 (In System Preferences >
Terminal Preferences,  'UTF-8' checked +  locales verified as well).

Any help would be greatly appreciated as well! :)
