When working with emacs in python mode, I've just realized this message in of the emacs buffers: /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Pymacs/__init__.py:25: DeprecationWarning: Non-ASCII character '\xa9' in file /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Pymacs/pymacs.py on line 2, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
fixed in -r1 thanks for the note
