Does anyone know how I could update this task so that it also checks included gems assets?

Thanks!

For the record, after using this rake task to track the files that were not UTF-8, I was able to convert them using recode, as recommended here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/64860/best-way-to-convert-text-files-between-character-sets
