UTF-8 can represent any Unicode character; if you need to store arbitrary 
NSStrings somewhere that only handles C-strings or bytestrings, then UTF-8 is a 
good choice.

If you're *getting* these file names as C strings and need to convert them to 
NSStrings, then you need to know what encoding they are in when you get them 
--- we can't help you there.
