Nice :)
One of my intention of building MacRuby 0.5 trunk by hand is checking status of regular expression against non-ASCII characters.
As I wrote in the comment I'v left; http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/94#comment:4
a very simple regular expression including a Japanese character against a string contains same character doesn't match.
It's very important issue for us, Japanese, and, I suppose, other non-ASCII character languages.
How about the status of supporting non-ASCII character?
That's right, currently regular expressions containing non-ASCII characters are not supported. This is a work in progress and you can be sure this will be fixed, of course. To make sure I won't forget I annotated the TODO file. However, applying regular expressions to non-ASCII strings should work. Laurent
