#352: macirb does not eval UTF-String ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Reporter: dev@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: MacRuby | Keywords: ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Changes (by lsansonetti@…): * milestone: MacRuby 0.5 => Comment: We do use libedit because it's what's available on Mac OS X by default. Readline isn't bundled because of licensing issues. We are aware that libedit misses functionality (the biggest problem is certainly missing support for multibyte characters). But this isn't a MacRuby problem, you should report this to Apple using http://bugreporter.apple.com. Alternatively, in trunk (future 0.7) there is a new irb implementation (called DietRB) and it is possible to plug some pure-ruby readline code on top of it, fixing the multibyte input problems. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/352#comment:5> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
