If SyncTeX (called from XeTeX via TeXworks) is asked to handle a file with a U+2019 : RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK {single comma quotation mark} in its name rather than an apostrophe, it reports the following:

I am reporting this here based on the following, but cc'ing the XeTeX and TeXworks lists as I cannot be certain wherein lies the problem —<br>

<pre>Hi Ulrike,

Gosh.
Could someone tell me who maintains synctex today (if ever)
Peter B had been maintaining it since the main development was finished.
So I guess I am maintaining it now :(.
Jerome Laurens originally wrote synctex. Although he gave up
maintenance a few years ago, I think I will ask him if he can look at it.
and where to report the issue?
Here was the right place. --thanks, karl.
