I propose another plan: * decode arguments on the command line arguments based on the locale * if on windows use the locale to determine the encoding for the file names, otherwise use utf-8. Encode file names as late as possible, just before calling -e, stat, open... The first point is important in general, I think, not only for file names, but also for customization variables strings in case one use accented characters in those. -- Pat
