Encoding problem ? about mistletoe HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey there! I ran your code and it isn't an encoding problem. The reason mistletoe isn't parsing the heading (or the list, for that matter) is because filedata is passed in as a string. If you do:

>>> print(repr(filedata))
'# Header level 1\n\nsdlkjsdlkjsd\n\n## Header level 2\n\nCeci est uyn texte en français avec des accenbtes éèàüö %% !?\n\n### Header level 3\n\nText block with **emphasis** and a [url](http://www.url.fr)\n\n* item 1\n* item 2\n* item 3\n'

... whereas mistletoe.markdown accepts a list-like argument. You could either split filedata by newlines so that it can become a list, but that would be added complexity. In your case, it is enough to do:

with open(fullpath, 'r') as f:
    rendered = mistletoe.markdown(f)

print(rendered)

This should provide the result you want. No need to read in the content of the file into a variable first!

Sorry this isn't clear in the documentation, and I'll add this information in soon.

Thank you for this precision.
I'm now playing with your lib and everything is working fine !
