Summary: Installer outputs BOM from History.txt
Initial Comment:
After installation, changelog item for last version is displayed to console.
However, the file is in UTF-8 with BOM (byte order mark, "EF BB BF") and the
BOM is output to console as well, which results in display of three "ugly"
characters.
Excerpt from output:
-----8<-----
d:\var\tmp\ror\rubygems-1.8.5\rubygems-1.8.5>ruby setup.rb
RubyGems 1.8.5 installed
=== 1.8.4 / 2011-05-31
* 1 minor enhancement:
* The -u option to 'update local source cache' is official deprecated.
* Remove has_rdoc deprecations from Specification.
* 2 bug fixes:
[...]
----->8-----
Suggestions:
* Filter out the BOM on output
* Convert History.txt to ANSI/ISO
(History.txt seems to be the only UTF-8 file around anyway)
