Unicode support?

[Adam V.]

How do I output text w/ unicode characters?

xml = xmlwitch.builder()
with xml.root as node:
# \xa9 == Unicode code point for (C) symbol.
xml.name(u"This text is \xa9 2009 Some Guy Productions.")


The code above fails with:
UnicodeEncodeError: ascii, <name>This text is © 2009 Some Guy
Productions.</name>, 19, 20, ordinal not in range(128)

Quick answer, xmlwitch expects UTF-8 text, so this works:

xml = xmlwitch.builder('1.0', 'utf-8')
with xml.root:
  xml.name('This text is \xc2\xa9 2009 Some Guy Productions.')

But yeah, it should work with Unicode strings as well. Gonna look into that.

Just noticed you've been doing some work on your 'more' branch. Good call with the PEP8 compliance. Gonna try and merge some of that stuff later.
