I have try to restated this kind of issue, I get only "invalid multibyte char" exception : > invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError) > encoding.rb:2: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) "incompatible character encoding: UTF-8 and IBM437" seem well append at the "puts" on stdout. On windows, I do all my stuff with 1.9.2 in utf-8, and i forget 1.8... Issue arrive when I test compatibility with JRuby ! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
