Non-Ascii character fixes/charset

[anonymous]

I notices there seems to be nearly no possible option for the current nicotine+ client to show exact filenames without problems. In unix systems you can download the files with wrong filenaming regardless of the charset given on the OS or nicotine itself. Only ISO-8859-15/latin-1 will work correctly with some files but not with every chars.

When using windows I noticed people just can't download files with special characters from me, so I still wonder how they can download the files from me. A change of the charset again will bring nothing. "Remote: File not found" How can those issues be solved?

Well, just a stupid empty dummy reply to check our new mailling lists ;-)

A new try...

I agree to this problem.

I made the same experience, after a user told me he got a remote file not shared error.

The folder he wanted to download from was labled 'Das Präparat'. I double checked it, and I was only using ansi chars. There was no way to get access the files in this folder. Other folders are OK, as long as no Umlaut is in the folder or file name. Folders with Umlauts are completely not shared, and files on a 1:1 basis.

I tried everything to fix it, but no way. I also tried nicotine+-1.2.8-svn-r374-win32.exe, but same result.

I realy hope this error will be fixed, cause as a german user I have german umlauts in my folder names, and as a collector of nordic folk music, I also have special chars like Å in my file names.
