Hello @pasky!

Thanks for the speedread!

my perl experience is next to nil but..

I had this problem:

~/Applications/speedread ~/Desktop/text.txt -w 350
#!/usr/bin/env perl
                    v
Bytes implicitly upgraded into wide characters as iso-8859-1 at /Users/nfedyashev/Applications/speedread/speedread line 179.
            которые                                  350 wpm

and after some googling and this fix, it seems to be working now:

~/Applications/speedread/speedread ~/Desktop/text.txt -w 350
                    v
                   кто                                          350 wpm

file ~/Desktop/text.txt
/Users/nfedyashev/Desktop/text.txt: UTF-8 Unicode text, with very long lines

Probably there are better ways to fix it but it works now
