Cucumber needs colours and codepage detecting for MRI, JRuby and IronRuby on Windows. Would this new FFI thing work with IronRuby too?

Dealing with 1.9 made me notice that. Anyhow, I have two options: a C-extension version for MRI and the Win32API powered by FFI for JRuby. That will work with JRuby 1.5 as Win32API is now complete and functional. If that works, then the need for a separate code or simplified tool will rend useless. Cheers! @Aslak Hellesøy: Thanks Aslak for the pointer.

I'll do my best to make sure the next Cucumber release uses this. Cucumber currently handles the codepage stuff like this: http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/blob/1fcfb215075d556f15cb7dfa3c069189306e56dd/lib/cucumber/formatter/unicode.rb This hackery is used both by JRuby (where there is no win32console) and MRI. Now that win32console (which is only available on MRI) has a built-in way to detect the output codepage I'd like to use that - but we still need to handle the JRuby case. Do you have any tips on how to deal with this? It would be great to have a chat on IRC about this. Thanks again, Aslak Thanks a lot for this Luis!

I think the main other useful thing for any win32 console lib is non-blocking getchar, which is also in highline, etc. and now rbreadline too, so let rip!
