Is there a convenient way to find the encoding of a source file?  I
thought maybe this would be in the inspect module, but I didn't see it
there.  Just as nice would be a way to get the file as a unicode string,
I suppose.

(This is related to another thread I've recently posted to, where
another user was having trouble with pydoc's links to source files using
the file: protocol.  I suggested having pydoc serve the source files,
and provided a patch, but it's crossed my mind that it would be nice to
tell the browser the encoding of that file.
