Hi,
if I do this
?> puts “usa”.tr(‘a’,‘b’)
usb
=> nil

puts “usa”.tr(‘ã’,‘b’)
It stays forever waiting for not sure about what. Does not work
what I’m doing wrong?

I can’t get my answer from your answers, sorry
anyway, the case is:
puts “usã”.tr(‘ã’,‘b’) → don’t work
the result shoul be usb but it blocks
Sorry that I wasted your time!
It was just a stupid joke, really stupid, I put a smiley and appologies
but
that was not good enoughI meant you transformed U.S.A into USB, but both are very useful!
Cheers

Well, tell them to stop it.
Seriously, I only work with English and Japanese characters so if that
didn’t fix your problem then the only thing I know to try is $KCODE =
‘u’.
If that doesn’t help, maybe someone else can help.
