syntax hilighting destroys my unicode characters! #3

I was exited about syntax highlighting in readme files so I edited the Readme of one my gems here https://github.com/aziz/farsifu/blob/master/README.md

The code has some Persian text inside it which looks fine when editing, but the syntax highlighted version shows wierd characters!

Thanks for the report. This is now Markdown-related however, this is an issue with the Pygments highlighter. I'll keep this open while we investigate it on detail.

Hey Allen,

I'm very sorry this took us so long to fix. We've just rolled out a new version of Albino that works smoothly with all kinds of Unicode characters. If you find any Unicode chars that are not yet properly rendered, that's because the old version is still on Memcached. As soon as the cache expires, it will render nicely.

Thanks again for reporting!
