On Win7 with Consolas as cmd.exe font:

C:\Users\Jon\Downloads\temp>chcp
Active code page: 1252

C:\Users\Jon\Downloads\temp>type Cliché\test.rb
puts "This should work, press a key to exit"
gets

C:\Users\Jon\Downloads\temp>ruby -v Cliché\test.rb
ruby 1.9.3p277 (2012-09-25 revision 37029) [i386-mingw32]
This should work, press a key to exit
