Hello all,
I have a problem with Windows, accented characters and lfs.
My code is something like this:
for entry in lfs.dir(dir) do
...
end
and I have a file named 'cöw.pdf'
(LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS, U+00F6)
and the "entry" variable above has the bytes
63 F6 77 2E 70 64 66
c ö w . p d f
So the ö is encoded as F6.
Is it possible to get utf8 encoding there? Or do I need a mapping such as:
filename on disk -> utf8 -> filename on disk (for file access)?
Any advice on this topic?
Patrick
