subprocess stdin encoding

[yc]

I have a encoding problem during using of subprocess. The input is a
string with UTF-8 encoding.

the code is:

tokenize =
subprocess.Popen(tok_command,stdin=subprocess.PIPE ,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,close_fds=True,shell=True)

(tokenized_text,errs) = tokenize.communicate(t)

the error is:
File "/usr/local/python/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 651, in
communicate
return self._communicate(input)
File "/usr/local/python/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 1115, in
_communicate
bytes_written = os.write(self.stdin.fileno(), input[:512])
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa9' in
position 204: ordinal not in range(128)
How I change the default encoding from "ascii" to "utf-8"?

find code like

def setencoding():
"""Set the string encoding used by the Unicode implementation. The
default is 'ascii', but if you're willing to experiment, you can
change this."""
encoding = "ascii" # Default value set by _PyUnicode_Init()
if 0:
# Enable to support locale aware default string encodings.
import locale
loc = locale.getdefaultlocale()
if loc[1]:
encoding = loc[1]

in site.py . and change if 0: to if 1: to enable string encoding.
Now, you can execute python interpreter with LC_CTYPE='UTF-8'.
