I downloaded and installed Wing Pro today then added a project I had been working on in IDLE IDE. I am running with python 3.7 on Windows 10. The problem is all the strings with £ now appear as Â£. I use £ extensively as the UK currency symbol. For example:

if int_pence > 0:
    return '£' + "{:,.2f}".format(pnds_float)

What should I do?
