I am using EditPad Pro and my file type is set to Python. EditPad is great and I like it but recently I was trying to update Google App Engine and I got an error during installation saying that my python script contained non-ascii characters. This is my question at Stackoverflow.
When I saved the file in Notepad as text the problem was solved. Then I noticed that EditPad was saving python file as Batch file output(). I believe that python file with .py ending needs to be saved as text. But Batch file output() is the default save for .py. Is there a way to change this setting? I tried to change it in Option-->Preferences but couldn't make it work. And also, is this the cause of the problem why there are non-ascii characters in the script?
