solve svn error "can't recode string" on Mac OS X

was getting this error on certain files until I added this to ~/.bash_profile :
export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

automatically authorize a remote host (SSH key swap)

use with caution! This script will copy your pub key to a remote host so you can login or run remote scripts without a password. IMPORTANT: if you need to run a single script on the remote host, it would be better to authorize a key for just that script.

#!/bin/bash

function usage()

    echo ""
    echo "Authorizes a host for automatic SSH use by sending your key to the remote host ..."
    echo "Usage: $0 remote_host_to_authorize [username:=defaults to current username]"
    echo ""
}

function cleanup()
{
    if [ -f $TEMP_PUB_KEY_XFER ]
    then
        rm $TEMP_PUB_KEY_XFER
    fi

Browse pydoc locally ...

Opens pydoc in your browser. If pydoc has not been started it starts it for you.

#!/bin/bash

    exit 1
fi

# passthru ...

#--------------------------------------
# or else... start it up automagically :

function browse_docs()
{
    open ${PYDOC_SERVER}
}

for ps in `ps ax | grep "${PYDOC}" | awk '{ print $1 }'`
do
    let pydoc_pses++
done

if [ $pydoc_pses -ge 2 ]
then
    browse_docs
else
    ${PYDOC} -p ${PYDOC_PORT} &
    until `curl -o /dev/null ${PYDOC_SERVER} &>/dev/null`
    do
        echo "waiting for pydoc server ..."
