I recently got a book that has ★ in its title.

Unfortunately, Obok cannot decode this character correctly.

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\obok_2.01.py", line 198, in <module>
    print "%d: %s" % (i, volumekeys[key]["title"])
  File "C:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp850.py", line 12, in encode
    return codecs.charmap_encode(input,errors,encoding_map)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\u2605' in position
 8: character maps to <undefined>

I am a little puzzled on how I can overcome this.
