Rails - Mar 2006 - [Tip] Rails 1.1 / Ruby 1.8.4 - Fixing Syntax Errors on Windows

Hello All ~

As suggested I upgraded Ruby to 1.8.4 along with Rails.  My Linux
boxes have been running 1.8.4 and haven''t complained about my source. 
On the Windows version however, if you start to see errors like:

Invalid char `\002'' in expression

parse error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting kEND

Go through your code and replace your tabs with spaces.  I use
EditPlus and you can configure the tabs to use spaces.  This solved my
problem.
