Subject: UTF-8 problems

Hi,
I (perhaps stupidly) decided to compile and install 1.8.5 on my Mac,
thinking there might have been some improvements to Ruby. So, I did, and I
fiddled around with settings, changing the default encoding to UTF-8
instead of whatever it was before, and the secondary was Shift-JIS.
Problems...
1) If I write, for example,
puts "???"
It does that annoying Mac thing...
puts "\343\201\253\343\202\203\343\203\274"

I had this previously fixed for other Terminal things.

2) ri won't install, period. It keeps giving me weird errors that I forgot
to copy and paste here. It compiles itself and then stops, with lots of
errors.

Should I just reinstall and start over?
