get system encoding?

Hi!

I have the following problem.

I use the ruby function Dir.getwd to get the working directory of my
running ruby application. I need to save this via a firebird adapter to
my DB.

When Dir.getwd contains special characters like "Ã?" the database insert
failes due to a wrong encoding. On my machine i have windows-1252
encoding, the firebird adapter requires utf-8. If i force a charset
conversion with iconv from windows-1252 to UTF-8 it works.

The open question is: How can i obtain the system encoding of my windows
machine?

would you mind giving ENV.user_encoding from ruby-nuggets a shot?
i'd be interested to see if that works for you.

gem:
<http://rubyforge.org/projects/prome...

code:
<http://github.com/blackwinter/ruby-nuggets/tree/master/lib/nuggets/env/user_encod...

usage:
require 'rubygems'
require 'nuggets/env/user_encoding'

puts ENV.user_encoding

cheers
