Re: widechar to linux filenames?????


[Off topic]

Hi David,

Most Unix file systems accept ANY character for a filename, EXCEPT two: null and slash.

So if you encode your filenames with UTF8, and present them as UTF8 (after checking that it's valid UTF8 ... otherwise presume 8859-1), you should be fine.
