Readlines help

I am using the latest version of Ruby on Windows. When I do the
following in irb:

File.open('sometextfile.txt').readlines

I get an array of unicode characters. The example in the book I am
following along with, Everyday Scripting with Ruby, shows each array
element as a line from the file. No Unicode. How do I get readlines
to work without spitting out unicode?

Thanks,
SA

I have a feeling it'll be a Windows irb configuration issue. I just
tried it on my Windows box and everything parses fine.

Unless your text file isn't plain ASCII, perhaps? Have you tried a
different text file?
