-----------------------------------

Thanks, Klaas.

I tried -jobconf option and it worked.
But it looks like a part of the content was lost.
The test results are the following.

Do you have any idea what's wrong?

$ bin/hadoop fs -ls data

> Right now, the streaming framework expects the output sof the steam process (mapper or reducer) are line 
> oriented UTF-8 text. This limit makes it impossible to use those programs whose outputs may be non-UTF-8
>  (international encoding, or maybe even binary data). Streaming can overcome this limit by introducing a simple
> encoding protocol. For example, it can allow the mapper/reducer to hexencode its keys/values, 
> the framework decodes them in the Java side.
> This way, as long as the mapper/reducer executables follow this encoding protocol, 
> they can output arabitary bytearray and the streaming framework can handle them.
