Thanks for asking this question Ender. I don't have an answer but will
benefit from it as well.

Hi,
Is there any way to deal with files whose filenames contain non-ascii chars?
Assume that *tFilename* is *specialFolderPath(“desktop”) & “/ağaç.png”*
_set the filename of image 1 to tFilename
results with an empty image.
_set the filename of image 1 to URLEncode(tFilename)
same, an empty image.
I even tried this:
_set the filename of image 1 to uniEncode(tFilename, “utf8”)
I know it’s kinda stupid but it was a desperate attempt.
The thing is I can’t control the filenames.
There are thousands of images in the server
and different people {editors} upload them.
Some of those so-called computer literate editors insist to name the files with
non-ascii chars.
Since the underlying OS or the server doesn’t complain
{see, utf8 became a common standard for years if not decades}.
they don’t notice the error and I end up with the headache.
So, is there any workaround to make Livecode accept those files?
Thanks for all your help...
Best,
