Blender Export script issue

[asmodeus]

Recent versions of Python will break the current exporters because of the use of non-ASCII characters in the comment section.  See:  http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ where it states:  

   Python will default to ASCII as standard encoding if no other
    encoding hints are given.

    To define a source code encoding, a magic comment must
    be placed into the source files either as first or second
    line in the file, such as:

          # coding=<encoding name>

    or (using formats recognized by popular editors)

          #!/usr/bin/python
          # -*- coding: <encoding name> -*-

    or

          #!/usr/bin/python
          # vim: set fileencoding=<encoding name> :

The 1.5 exporter script fails on line 133 and the 1.6 script fails on line 138, both of which are a recognition of help received:

Code: [Select]

#       « pseudonym404 » : NMVert.uvco issue and solutions
As a work around you can delete the line in question after saying "all hail  Ã‚« pseudonym404 » for the contribution to this export script" a real fix might be to include some encoding (Or move the recognition from the script to a readme file )

ok, thanks for this!
I will fix it by removing all non ascii chars and release it as 1.7 soon .

Ok 1.7 is there, I hope its fixed now! I had no trouble so can someone please establish that its working now?
