Hi all,

Ok, here it goes. Atached are the files used in the test.

The problem as reported in the >> previous email << used
the file with the offending chars wrapped in a main file, which was just:

\starttext
\input zzz.tex
\stoptext

That is, the offending chars were in zzz.tex.

In that example I noticed the error because the cross-refs
in the equation numbering were not working.
The parsing of the .tui file by ruby 1.9.1 failed. Then I saw the errors.

ruby 1.9 internally is no longer 8 bit clean i.e. there is always an encoding (file as well as internal); there is no way to enforce this (there is the -E option but that is useless for 1.8)

i now open some files explicitly in binary mode; maybe that helps; i have no clue what happens with string manipulations later on

i always liked ruby but such fundamental changes (encoding, dropping functions etc) without renaming the program are a showstopper for me as one cannot predict what will be on the user's system

it looks like i have to convert the texutil part to lua (takes a few days and since i mostly use luatex it has a low priority)

i uploaded a beta for testing
