If I use Notepad2's menu to set the encoding to "UTF8 with signature", and run either "ruby utf8_with_signature.rb" or "ruby -Ku utf8_with_signature.rb", the file fails to parse. The file is attached.
If I save the file with encoding set just as "UTF8", the file is 3 bytes smaller. "ruby utf8.rb" fails, but "ruby -Ku utf8.rb" works. With "-Ku", things work even if I do not have "# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-" in the file. The repro files are attached.

Non-ansi characters cause an error while loading the file. Did the utf-8 file(s) you tried have a BOM or not? -Matthew
