in reply to Archive::Zip and german charset

The selected filed is compressed but the ß is replaced with a unreadable character. Does anybody know a solution ?
How? Where are you looking at the filename? Have you tried other zip software? What's the filename look there (wherever that may be -- console, gui filesystem browser, zip program, whatever)?

You need to describe exactly what you did with what and where, cause like borisz says it doesn't look like an Archive::Zip problem
