encoding not an option using set_key

[gbrabelo]

You can create and read a .env using the main.DotEnv class with an encoding, but the functions of setting key/unsetting do not act accordingly with the encoding set nor have an option to set it. - They both use the rewrite contextmanager

DotEnv and rewrite are internal objects so I'm going to ignore them for now.

If I understand correctly, what you are looking for is an encoding parameter for dotenv.set_key and dotenv.unset_key, similar to the one dotenv.load_dotenv and dotenv.dotenv_values already have. Is that correct?

If that's what you meant, I can probably consider adding this since it would make sense and should be easy to do.

That's exactly right! It makes sense cause otherwise you can't edit an env file that was loaded with a different encoding!

I just opened a pull request (#379). I hope that it will solve your problem.

Great! Thanks!
