Description

Point people in the right direction to avoid encoding dramas.
Hard to give more specific instructions though - they depend on the platform, shell and how long-lived they want the change to be.
We shouldn't set this variable on a user's behalf either, both because it may clobber an encoding they intentionally and it may overwrite other settings in RUBYOPT.
