if you think this is a problem about file encodings. maybe you should add 

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

or

# coding: utf-8

in the head(line 1 or line 2) of any python script file.

You should try -

dos2unix <filename>

To convert files created in windows to unix format. Reference

Please note dos2unix, is not python code conversion, it would convert dos characters to unix equivalent.
