[Py2exe-users] Encoding declaration # -*- coding: XXX -*-

[Alexander B. <bi...@uk...>]

Hi!
I have a little problem with application that converted to console 
executable with py2exe.

This application can import and execute external python script, i.e. not 
from compiled in exe zipfile library.zip. But when I declare encoding of 
that external python script in form:

# -*- coding: cp1251 -*-

During execution I've got error:

   SyntaxError: "no codec search functions registered: can't find
encoding" (extscript.py, line 1)

extscript.py -- it's my external script that imported by exe.

I guess I miss some std python library that handle encoding declaration. 
Can you tell me what I need explicitly add to exe?

Alexander
