I'm not sure if this is a LC question, or an OSX question, or a unicode
question, or ... or what.
I have a folder with funny characters (:-) in its name, and that seems
to cause a problem in LC.
When I do 'ls' in terminal, I get
Björg Þórhallsdóttir
I cannot copy/paste this into a LC script using the script editor, but
copy/pasting it into a text file, and then reading that (as a binfile)
shows that the characters are
B j ˆ r g fi Û r h a l l s d Û t t i r
66 106 246 114 103 32 222 243 114 104 97 108 108 115 100 243 116 116 105
114 10
However, in LC if I do
put the folders into myVar
what I get is
66 106 154 114 103 32 63 151 114 104 97 108 108 115 100 151 116 116 105 114
i.e. instead of
246 I get 154
243 I get 151
222 I get 63
and (naturally) I cannot then do "set the defaultfolder to line 2 of myVar"
So - is there anything I can do to get around this ?
Thanks
-- Alex.
