I have usually launched the script gui from wihin eclipse because of this error but now i want to get the bottom of this so i dont have to open eclipse everytime i want to run a script!

Since you didn't say what code actually does this, I'll turn to my
crystal ball. It says you are trying to print characters to a terminal
that doesn't support them. If that is the case, you could try changing
the code page (but only 3.3 supports cp65001, so that probably won't
help) or use replacement characters when printing.
