There is Python, and, on the other hand, there is Python.

In some GNU/Linux distributions (e.g. Ubuntu), the default Python is
version 2.x, whose default encoding is ASCII (and has been that way
since at least 2.6).

On the other hand, the current version of Python is 3.x, where a big
Unicode revolution has happened and now the default encoding is UTF-8.

Both of these Pythons recognize Emacs-style and vim-style encoding
declarations, and in addition the UTF-8 byte order mark (which can be
called Notepad-style encoding declaration).
