@ksaitor Why did you accept this PR without discussion? There is clearly an underlying issue with some dependency. I see this PR as an indication of an upstream problem. A rushed workaround is not needed. Also, restricting the content to merely ASCII is an unsustainable “solution.” |
|
@CBas there was nothing in the diff that looked unacceptable. |

the cause of the problem was spurious unicode lying around that looked like an artefact leftover from the original document. Probably caused by my upgrade to Mavericks. I could just setenv but is that more of a workaround? |
|
@mengwong AFAIK the files were correctly encoded as UTF-8. I intentionally sprinkled some Unicode quotes in the content for stylistic reasons and as a test to check if we can handle, for example, Chinese text. Try adding this to Jekyll's encoding: utf-8Any difference then? |
jekyll refused to start. this was the easiest way for me to fix it
