Summary: UTF-8 mode files won't save with non-ASCII characters

Initial Comment:
Changing "Defaulr Source Encoding" to UTF-8 prevents 

error messages for files with "european characters" 

(ÄÖÜ). However the file will not save any longer...



Remove those characters and saving is o.k. again.

I think bug #805728

(https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=805728&group_id=5470)

 should cover this case.

I found it happens only when editing existing files, not

when saving new ones.

I noticed the same problem with these characters (in my case

they were "à" and "è"").

Here is what I get in the shell, when trying to save from Idle:





>>> Exception in Tkinter callback

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\PROGRA~1\Python23\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line

1345, in __call__

    return self.func(*args)

  File "C:\PROGRA~1\Python23\lib\idlelib\IOBinding.py", line

335, in save

    if self.writefile(self.filename):

  File "C:\PROGRA~1\Python23\lib\idlelib\IOBinding.py", line

370, in writefile

    chars = chars.replace("\n", self.eol_convention)

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in

position 365: ordinal not in range(128)
