Maybe textDecode(filename) would work.

Is the need because the files already exist, or is it because you cannot
control the source of the files? If possible, the files should probably be
renamed on the other end to make them "compatible" with all file systems.
If not, then maybe urlEncode/urlDecode or the ISO functions may work for you.
Thanks Bob. That´s what i am doing right now.
As i cannot guarantee that my customer won´t use such filenames, i will
implement a function that removes and replaces all characters that are
non-ascii.
Although, i am wondering how ftp clients like transmit are able to handle
such non-ascii characters. Anyway.
Regards,
Matthias
