Net::FTP handles them well, the content is just as I expected. But the problem comes with the filename I expect on the server side. When I expect it to be "somefile_=A9_.sample" it will upload as "somefile_=C2=A9_.sample". I made some example code so you can duplicate it: https://gist.github.com/3949372. The catch is that you need an FTP account to try it (line 51, 52). This will create a file with an special utf8 char in /tmp and attempt to upload it. I followed with debugger through the logic on Net::Ftp.put and found out that the @socket.write method is responsible for this (@socket is a TCPSocket object). So I've tried overloading the methods putfile and storbinary from Net::FTP, setting @sock.set_encoding('utf-8') to set the default_external encoding, but to no avail. My filenames still appear with the wrong encoding on the FTP server. Any suggestions? PS. - I'm using ruby-1.9.3-p194 - I've tried in clients such as Mac's transmit and it works as expected, the special chars are respected. --20cf307abca733ff2304cce4511c Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
