From: Michael Klishin Date: 2008-12-18T23:59:17+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:20650] [Bug #877] [win32] Ruby Standard Library (maybe smth else): Wrong Encoding in Files, Directories and Environment Variables Issue #877 has been updated by Michael Klishin. 1.9.1 branch is stable for day-to-day use, I do not know about any available builds for Windows though, and some libraries you may want to use still need to catch up. v1_8_0 tag of Ruby is from 2003 and Windows XP is from 2001 or so. At some point in time, people should consider moving on or just accept what is missing in older versions. Ruby is not unique in this regard. ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/877 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
