Subject: IRB doesn't like umlaut u (Re: Ruby install on Kubuntu Linux - why so spread out)

I was just writing a reply to these two EVER SO RIGHTEUSLY HELPFUL 
OVERLORDS (Todd Benson and Peter Hickman) of alt.comp.ruby as a ruby 
script in IRB...

But as I was typing "�ber = Array.new" IRB died instantly. Same on 2nd 
and 3rd time. Umlaut U. Html code &uuml; or &#252;.

Anyone know why is this?

All those interested in things only Ruby can ignore the rest of this post.

OMG are you threatening me? OMG I am sooo afraid now. *Begs for mercy* 
*whimper* I will never reply to people picking on my posts in anything 
but the most pleasing tone again just to pleasure you and Peter!

ALSO I will always include you two as recipients in ALL usenet posts I 
make from now on, just to please you and your infinite intelligence, so 
you can censor my posts and correct my evil horrible caustic acidic 
ways. *backs up and bows on each step*
