You have just experienced encoding hell. Try something like text = text.convertencoding(encodings.macroman) before outputting to the file (assuming you're working on a mac, on windows replace macroman by windowslatin1).
The reason is because RB defaults to UTF8 so you need to explicitly convert it to the OS native encoding before writing it, although if you opened your text file in a smarter editor, like Word, it would most probably output fine. Math On 8/1/06, Lennox Jacob <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
