Hello, I wonder if someone can advise me on how to open unicode utf-8 files without using the codecs library . I am trying to use the codecs.open() from within Google Appengine but it is not working.

When posting about something 'not working', post at least a line of code and the resulting exception traceback, if there is one, or a printing of the erroneous value, if that instead is the problem.
