However, it's conceivable that some file system might want path strings in another (legacy) format. Say, Shift_JIS, Big5, or KOI8-R. I'm not sure any do. I'm not even sure the vfs layer allows the fs to register a preference. But there's a function for it, so you might as well use it. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
