   132 defaults to using Unicode for editing Python source code and the
interactive window. To stop this, open Pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\view.py,
find the OnInitialUpdate method and comment out the two lines under "#
Enable Unicode if we can". Save the file, shut down Pythonwin and restart it
and see if this fixes the problem.

   Yes, there should be an option to control this.
