That's actually a good thing.... I take it you're doing this in a terminal? Which one? Was it compiled with UTF8 support?What font is the terminal using for display? A "?" replacing characters tends to mean (in font-speak) that the character is 'known', but no actual character exists to render under the selected font, or font encoding. So you kinda get a"?" literally because the display doesn't know what to show there, if you see what I'm getting at. Are you able to actually use any of the files properly, even if the filenames are not displayed correctly? Or are you unable to try that, because you just can't read any of the filenames? If your Winbox is Chinese, does your terminal, and the display font chosen for the terminal support Chinese characters? I've gotta tell you, getting UTF8 and font encoding properly set up so that 'special characters' appear correctly across programs and terms can be a pain in the butt, and I'm only needing it for another Latin-based language, not any of the Asian or Cyrillic languages that use a completely different character set. But it's well worth doing, because it's more of a pain to not be able to read filenames or messages because of these stupid '?'s or other 'placeholder' characters that must be used in place of the correct ones when the system is not set up to support the correct ones.
