Hi,

I was ready to show a friend the Pharo web capabilities with the
classical "myString asUrl retrieveContents", but the friend gave me a
url that contains non Latin characters[1] and then I got an
ZnInvalidUTF8 error.

How can I process web addresses in Pharo that contain non latin
characters like the one in [1]?

Maybe you can make it into additional test case(s) in Zinc and upload 
them so authors (or anyone else willing to) can take on from that point 
and fix them.

I also faintly remember Zinc having some problems when I worked with it 
and the need to devise workarounds around asUrl use.

Thanks,
