LMQL doesn't run when fed latin accented characters

[OPaivaHeitor]

Hello, I've been running into issues when using LMQL with strings containing accented characters:

When running

@lmql.query
def test():
    '''lmql
    "Q: J'adore déguster du café dans un café authentique à Paris."
    "A: [ANSWER]" where STOPS_AT(ANSWER, ".")
    print(ANSWER)
    '''

The following message is shown:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E: ... \LMQLTesting.py", line 296, in <module>
    @lmql.query
     ^^^^^^^^^^
  File "C:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\site-packages\lmql\api\queries.py", line 130, in query
    module = load(temp_lmql_file, output_writer=silent)
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "C:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\site-packages\lmql\api\queries.py", line 22, in load
    module = compiler.compile(filepath)
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "C:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\site-packages\lmql\language\compiler.py", line 902, in compile
    contents = f.read()
               ^^^^^^^^
  File "<frozen codecs>", line 322, in decode
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 19: invalid continuation byte

However, if I run the same code, but removing the accents:

@lmql.query
def test():
    '''lmql
    "Q: J'adore deguster du cafe dans un cafe authentique a Paris."
    "A: [ANSWER]" where STOPS_AT(ANSWER, ".")
    print(ANSWER)
    '''

then, lmql seems to be able to give me a reply from the model:

C'est génial ! Il y a tellement de cafés authentiques à Paris, tu as de la chance de pouvoir en profiter.

Thanks for reporting this. It seems like the compile may have issue processing the code, before even parsing it. We can have a look. It may be related to Windows and file encodings, accented characters should not lead to problems normally.
