Hello, World!

I've got some files on my FAT partitions which I created with Windows 98
containing Umlauts (�,�,�,�) in their filenames.

For example, I've got a file called "Test f�r mich.txt".  When I list that
dir in Windows, the filename is displayed correctly.  But when I display the
directory in Linux the name is scrambled, ie. it becomes "Test f?r mich.txt"
when doing an ls, trying to mv the file is even "funnier".  There it becomes
Test\ fr\ mich.txt, and when I move the textcursor left and right over the
filename it becomes shorter and shorter every time.

And when I create a file containg an Umlaut with Linux, Linux will display
that name correctly.  But being in Windows, Widnows won't be able to access
that file.

I mount that partition with the option "codepage=850".  What's broken here?

Thanks for your help!
