Just trying to follow up Rayan Bates tut on Railscasts
http://railscasts.com/episodes/155-beginning-with-cucumber

All installed and runs great, except the letter "a" is missing from all words in the output!

This only happens in the Cucumber text output.

the gem I installed is:
win32console-1.2.0-x86-mswin32-60

I am on Win XP sp3


Just to make sure it is the console, I removed the gem and ran 
"cucumber features" and same output without colors looks fine with no missing letters.

Please find attached both outputs

thanks

Hello,

Since I don't have access to the tracker of this project, going
to add some feedback here.

The mangled or missing 'a' letters has been reported and
troubleshooted here:

Please also try the newest prerelease version of win32console
gem.
