 For Solaris try to add

    w.flush

 after `w.puts tabit'

 Try this

   require 'pty'
   
   ["The trees are bending over", "The cows are lying down"].each {|string| 
       PTY.spawn("cat -") do |r,w|
          tabit = string.gsub(/ +/, "\t")
          w.puts tabit
          w.flush
          foo =  r.gets.gsub(/\r\n/,"")
          p tabit, foo
          puts "tabbendectomy" unless foo == tabit
       end
   }
