Setting $KCODE to "u" in a ruby program is not a cure all. Not all the
ruby methods will suddenly recognize that characters consist of
multi-bytes. For instance,
$KCODE = "n"
str = "лошадь"
puts str.length
$KCODE = "u"
puts str.length
--output:--
12
12
If $KCODE were a cure all, they(Matz, et al) would just switch it on in
permanently, and the unicode problems would disappear.
