Using something like
Ä?varak = 7
or even
print "Ä?varak"
in DrPython would give you an Encoding Error and wouldn't even save the code file!
PythonWin simply removes the symbol and converts it to the letter c. It does however take spanish and german symbols. I guess your Ä? exceeds the extended ASCII characters and gets you into unicode.
Bummer indeed, going international stops right there!
