Hi,

> warning: variable $KCODE is no longer effective

This means that you are in 1.9 mode :) In that case there are two things you
could try:
1) set the encoding at the top of the file in the form of the comment:
# encoding: UTF-8

2) force an encoding on the string(s) in question with the method (if 1)
fails in IronRuby):
.force_encoding("UTF-8")
