Re^2: Handling file path with unusual characters

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I've read the article and tested the script that can be used to determined what type of encoding that is used in the environment I'm running. However, I was not able to find a single one of all encodings that produced a correct result. What to do then? If I've understood this correctly the encode command could solve my issue but I need to know which encoding to use.

Thanks!

What to do then? Improvise, Adapt and Overcome? Win32::Unicode, Encode::Guess? How do I post a question effectively?, I know what I mean. Why don't you? :)	[reply]

I'm trying to find as much information as possible before posting a question and in this matter I'm unable to find a solution to my problem. I checked the links but still no luck. I feel that this is an issue that should arise rather often and therefore I hope and believe that there's an off-the-shelf solution for this. I thought that the link in the posts above would help me but the test specified there to find the encoding used was unsuccessfull. Anyone that have had this problem and managed to solve it?	[reply]
