Hi Claus,

I hit the same issue (Linux, Redcloth 4.2.3).

My workaround was to html-escape non-standard characters before passing 
them to redcloth. It works but my solution is a little bit fragile. Did 
you find a proper solution?

Best, Georg

Hi Georg,
I went the same went. Eventually I managed to kind of solve the
problem, I have the proper jar generated which handles UTF characters
properly. What basicly what needs to be done is to use char (16-bit)
datatype in Ragel code instead of byte (8-bit). You can take a look
here at my work:
http://github.com/kowalski/redcloth
Problem is, that when you run rspec now on the new code, there is a
number of tests that fails. The difference is the extra whitespaces
added to the resulting html code. For me it is no harm so I have this
jar working on production for a few months now.

Cheers,
Marek Kowalski
