[tex-live] LuaTeX/ Filenames with accented characters on Windows

[Akira Kakuto]

> is there a chance that this will be supported in the future?

I just now have updated lua[jit]tex for w32 in TeX Live 2018.
If you install TeX Live 2018 after a few days,
I hope that

lualatex -cmdx test.tex
works for

%
% test.tex (encoding should be utf-8)
%
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}%
\directlua{
a = img.write({ filename = "cöw.pdf"})
}
\end{document}


The option "-cmdx" should be the first option,
otherwise it is simply ignored, and non-ascii
file names do not work.

Best,
Akira
