Unicode characters in Ruby 1.9.3 IRB with RVM

Question

Update: I found almost exact similar question, yet it has slightly different prerequisites and thus doesn\'t help much.

Given:

Answer 1

RVM has issues with readline installed via homebrew. This gist worked perfectly for me:

$ rvm get latest
$ rvm pkg install readline
$ rvm install 1.9.3 --with-readline-dir=$rvm_path/usr

Instead of install you can use reinstall.
