Hi, In [ruby-core:04882], nobu wrote patch supporting emacs-style encoding pragma each source would have its own. But I could not find the patch source in CVS HEAD. Have it been ever committed? Or still on discussing about that new feature? I'd like to know how to get source encoding. Currently, I'm using $KCODE. But if encoding pragma will be available, how can I use it? I expect encoding pragma will affect on $KCODE, so $KCODE will not be global variable anymore then, and instantiated for each source. Am I right? -- http://nohmad.sub-port.net
