> Hi, could you please point to the exact problem you mean related to Ruby 1.9 
encoding?

1. There is no way to set default source encoding (supplying 
command-line option is very inconvenient way to do it).

2. So, You has to put this extra line to source files # encoding: utf-8
Actually, I even encounter an article when someone created rake task 
that reads all files in lib and prepend this line, and he's called it 
the 'progress'. Well if this is the measure of the "progress" then the 
Java with his bloated Code Generation tools should be scored as far more 
"progressive" than Ruby.
In my point it's regress, not the progress.

2. There are problems with saving utf-8 characters in YAML

3. Why at all should I ever bother about encoding at these days? The 
only possible justification may be - the performance improvements, but 
Ruby is anyway slow, with or without any encoding optimization.

According to TIOBE the Java user base, installation base and community 
are about 30 times bigger than Ruby, and there are only one available 
encoding - utf-8, and it's absolutely enough to cover all the possible 
use cases.

In 99.9% of cases You use UTF and You are happy! So, why Ruby that 
positioned as simple and beautiful language have such messy situation 
with encoding, compared to "bloated Java"?
