title: Encoding - Pydev changes character automatically
body: <p>I am encoding every py script in my project to utf-8, as we are definitely migrating our application from Jython 2.2.1 to Jython 2.5.2. For that reason, I have added a 'magic comment' at the first line of every py file (<code>#encoding=utf-8</code>) and I have started testing whether everything is OK by debugging the application in Eclipse.</p>
  
  <p>The problem appears in a script that contains the string <code>straße</code>, because it is automatically converted to <code>straÃŸe</code>.</p>
  
  <p>My doubt is if this change is caused by Pydev or it happens because utf-8 doesn't cover this kind of characters. 
  What can I do to automatically avoid this issue with other 'strange' strings I haven't detected yet?</p>
