I gave it a try since some of our users do upload files using tools such as WINSCP. Since these files would also need to be accessible through the ]project-open[ file manager, we need to come up with a slightly more complex solution to detect files with special chars.
I have a patch (not checked in yet) that will let ns_returnfile use the same files as native tcl commands (by doing the same utf-8 to external decoding that tcl does internally).
It would make sense to apply this to all file-handling commands. But it would make more sense to replace these where possible (and simple) with tcl versions that map to the builtin tcl commands?. I think the docs even say that many of these date back to the time when tcl did not include these functions. Would anyone have any objection to replacing these c-coded commands with tcl ones?
The commands that could be easily replaced are ns_chmod, ns_cp, ns_rename, ns_link, ns_mkdir, ns_rename, ns_rmdir, ns_symlink, ns_unlink, and ns_ftruncate.
