title: emacs constantly asking before saving python code with # -*- coding: ASCII -*-
body: <p>I have  a python script that starts with:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env python
  # -*- coding: ASCII -*-
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and prior to saving, it always splits my window, and asks: </p>
  
  <p>Warning (mule): Invalid coding system `ASCII' is specified
  for the current buffer/file by the :coding tag.
  It is highly recommended to fix it before writing to a file.</p>
  
  <p>and I need to say yes, it there a way to disable this ? Sorry for asking but I had no luck on google.</p>
