Error using Norwegian with cucumber

Hi

I am experiencing a problem when using Cucumber with Norwegian language.
I
have added the files and the stacktrace on gist:

gist.github.com

https://gist.github.com/102438

env.rb

require 'rubygems'
require 'spec'

require 'funfx/browser/firewatir'
BROWSER = FireWatir::Firefox.new

DEMO_APP = "location_of_application.html" 

Before do
  BROWSER.goto(DEMO_APP)

steps.rb

Gitt 'at jeg åpnet applikasjonen' do
end

Når 'jeg velger nedtrekkslisten for tilbudstype' do
end

Så 'skal nedtrekkslisten vise alle tilbudstyper' do	
end

There are more than three files. show original

The problem is that when we use NÃ¥r (When) and SÃ¥ (Then) in the steps
file,
it fails with a parser error. If we switch all NÃ¥r and SÃ¥ with Gitt
(Given),
then all works as it should.

So it seems it does not figure out the Ã¥ letter. We are certain that all
files are UTF-8.

Any help is appreciated

Hi

I am experiencing a problem when using Cucumber with Norwegian language. I
have added the files and the stacktrace on gist:
102438’s gists · GitHub

What happens when you run the Norwegian examples that come with the gem?
Stand in the root folder and run:
ruby bin/cucumber examples/i18n/no/features -l no

So it seems it does not figure out the Ã¥ letter. We are certain that all
files are UTF-8.

What editor have you used? I have experienced that several Windows
editors
don’t save files properly in UTF format - even when you twist their
arm

Could you attach the ruby steps file?

Also - try one of the following:

a) Create features/support/env.rb and add:
$KCODE=‘u’
require ‘cucumber/formatter/unicode’
