Your approach is more general.
BTW I do not believe that gspell returns html entities like ü.  
It returns the hex code, I believe.

But anyway executing your code against a German text I get the  
following error messages if the text contains German umlauts (äöü):
/tmp/temp_textmate.Rn3S55:24:in `unpack': malformed UTF-8 character  
(expected 2 bytes, given 1 bytes) (ArgumentError)
	from /tmp/temp_textmate.Rn3S55:24:in `encodeUTF'
	from /tmp/temp_textmate.Rn3S55:22:in `gsub'
	from /tmp/temp_textmate.Rn3S55:22:in `encodeUTF'
	from /tmp/temp_textmate.Rn3S55:27

This error messages are shown if you add the line: 'print encodeUTF 
($text)'
I did this because nothing happens as long as I had German umlauts in  
the text and I looked for the request string.

On the other hand I have a problem with '\n\n' in the text.

Yes, OK.

Cheer,
