[New-bugs-announce] [issue11597] Can't get ConfigParser.write to write unicode strings

[the_isz]

New submission from the_isz <the_isz at gmx.de>:

Hey everyone,

I'm having issues writing unicode strings with ConfigParser.write. I don't know
if this is python's fault or my own but I couldn't find help on this, neither by
googling, nor by asking on the python irc channels.

Attached to this description I'll add an example script reproducing the error
and hope that someone will enlighten me on what I'm doing wrong.

It seems that this only occurs in python2, doing the same with python3 (omitting
the u before the unicode string), everything works fine.

Thanks in advance!
