Is there a way to change the default string encoding used by the
string.encode() method? My default environment is utf-8 but I need it
to be latin-1 to avoid errors like this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 4:
ordinal not in range(128)
I can't change the code to pass an encoding argument to the decode
method because it's someone else's code.
Thanks,
