I'm wondering if this is intended: puts "{K}".size # ---> 2 .... where {K} is a single kanji/kana symbol. Running ruby with "-Ke" (I'm using EUC-JP encoding) and without it produces the same result. I know that *technically* it takes 2 bytes, but logically... ;) Or, maybe, I'm missing something? Thank you. -- Best regards, Slava Kravchenko
