Question #201882 on Sikuli changed:

    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
If you work in Sikuli IDE, strings are interpreted as UTF-8 encoded.

The following works in the IDE as expected:

x = "Jørgen Ålesen"
y = "Jørgen Ålesen"
print "x:", x
print "y:", y
if x == y: print "are equal" 
else: print "are not equal"

and prints in the message area:

x: Jørgen Ålesen
y: Jørgen Ålesen
are equal

So if you read the names from a file, you have to make sure, that the lines read are UTF-8 encoded (by file encoding) and/or you have to convert the strings afterwards.
Specifics you can find in the Python docs in the file and the encoding section.
