Subject:How do I get unicode support in python?

I'm running a web server with FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE and python 2.4.3. I'm unable to print any characters outside of ascii. I have tried this code on my Linux computer, which has python 2.5.x and it works - so the code is solid.

What do I need to do to get python on the web server to have unicode support? Is there a module/package I need to import in the 2.4 series? Or is there some package/port I need to install? Or do I just recompile python with some different flags? (And does that entail any uninstalling first?)

Thanks,
