Hi Matz, The perplexing part for me was why jcode.rb was even being used by my code. A bit embarrasing to admit on a mailing list but somehow the line include "jcode" got included in one of my less used rails controller. I don't have any need for Japanese characters in my app so I can't imagine adding that line myself. I'm suspecting Textmate has a hotkey for inserting that line that I pressed inadvertantly.
