Why do ldquo and rdquo appear differently? #6

I can't reproduce this using Ruby 1.8.7 (non-REE):
What do you get from the same commands? |
Looks like an issue with ree 1.8.7? ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [i686-darwin10.6.0]

It does seem like it's REE rather than HTMLEntities, and specifically either irb or the implementation of
If you get an escape sequence in the last line, then I'll assume that it's a problem with REE and close this issue, if that's OK. |
ree output is "\342\200\235" Thanks for your help. Any idea for a work around? |
Sounds like a bug in REE then. Are you convinced it's really a problem? Do you get escape characters instead of the quote anywhere except in irb? Because if it's only in irb, then it's just an irritation but shouldn't actually affect anything at an operational level. |
(Closing this as I'm confident it's not an HTMLEntities bug) |
Update: I tested this on REE 1.8.7-head and it works. I think the REE 1.8.7-2011.01 includes the fix. |
Can anyone explain why the left quote displays differently than the right quote? Is this normal?
I'm using ruby enterprise 1.8.7.
