Can't read iso-8859-5 encoded files
Not that you should support it; just thought I'd report it.

Where the offending file is nonascii.py from the IPython project.
Hey tgoodlet, thanks for the example. Kind of struggling with my tests and the unicode transition between 2.7 and 3.3. I've found http://python3porting.com/ but I need to find the time to focus on it a little.
I'll get there eventually...
Hey @tgoodlet, the release v0.68.1 should fix this issue. Let me know if it does not.
Hey @elmotec I'm still seeing this issue (sorry it's been a while - haven't needed massedit for a bit).
An example would be a utf-8 encoded tags file generated from the VIM editor.
If you need an example I can probably whip another one up.
Mmmmmh. Yeah @tgoodlet, I could use another test case. The one I had was fixed with 0.68.1.
Sorry @goodboy, it's been 2 years. I just realized I pinged the wrong person. If you can provide an example, I could take a look.
Without a test case it's difficult to make sure the issue is resolved. If you could provide an example, that would give us a change to resolve the issue.
