Invalid multibyte escape: /[\177-\377]/

Hi!

Are you familiar with this error “/data/cvs/doc/doclocations/CVSROOT/cvsspam.rb:173: invalid multibyte escape: /[\177-\377]/”

This is running fine on ruby 1.8 but has error on ruby 2.0

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hi Julius,

This error occurs because Ruby 2.0 has different syntax rules for regular expressions compared to Ruby 1.8. To fix this issue, you can change the problematic regex /[\177-\377]/ to /[\x7F-\xFF]/ in the cvsspam.rb file.
