A question about encoding - Exsul1 - Mar-18-2020
I had to add
.encode('utf-8') to the end of a string containing vowels with macrons (ā and ē) to prevent my Kivy app from crashing, but these characters are not rendered properly in the app now. ē appears as \xc4\x93 and the string has been converted into a bytes literal. How do I prevent this?

If you provide some code and the actual error text when you exclude the .encode('utf-8) you might get some responses. As is your question is too nebulous
