Description Ryosuke Niwa 2010-08-18 16:57:50 PDT 
run-webkit-tests's pretty diff currently does not support non-ASCII characters.  As a result, non-ASCII characters such as those used to test RTL texts are corrupted in the expected results when the test uses dumpAsText.  Try editing/text-iterator/rtl-selection-crash.html for example.

FYI: diffs have no encoding and must be treated as binary.
Comment 2 Alexey Proskuryakov 2010-08-20 10:37:35 PDT 
Actually, I think that expected results are always UTF-8.

Just wasted some time due to this; haven't ever looked at pretty diff, how hard is this to fix?
