really stupid fix is at line 54 in windows.rb remove .encode(Encoding.default_external)

if you're curious i tried to put this on my clipboard: １２３４

If someone needs a quick fix, just do Encoding.default_external = 'utf-8'.

Starting with version 1.1.0, encoding handling is left to the user. Closing this, but feel free to open a new issue if you run into problems with the new approach!
