not when opened as 'rb' (which i do in the latest texexec.rb) so i
wonder why that does not work at your place
(http://blog.nuclearsquid.com/writings/ruby-1-9-encodings)
i run ruby 1.8.6 (and on a couple of servers even older versions and i'm
not going to touch ruby on these machines (i don't want to patch scripts
that are supposed to run another 5-10 years) but i might update context
and texexec)

hm, it worked here
