Did you copy/paste this from the old mail, by any chance? Using the latest test DLL the mapping is "t-\xEF\x80\x80" -(open, ...)-> L"t-\xF000" And that's basically correct, albeit it leads to problems. You know that we defined the area from 0xf000 to 0xf0ff as our private use area to create filenames with characters invalid in DOS filenames by transposing these chars into the private use area. When converting the filenames back, the 0xf0XX chars are transposed back to 0xXX. But yeah, I found the bug here. The problem is that the transpose table incorrectly contains NUL as transposable character. So if you create L"t-\xF000", that's fine. However, when converting this name back to UTF-8, the filename becomes L"t-\0". Oops. I dropped the ASCII NUL from the list of transposable characters and now what you get is this: $ touch $'t-\xef\x80\x80' $ touch $'t-\xef\x80\x81' $ ls -l total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 corinna vinschen 0 Jun 27 16:49 't-'$'\001' -rw-r--r-- 1 corinna vinschen 0 Jun 27 16:49 't-'$'\357\200\200' Apart from the incorrect transposition of ASCII NUL, the transposition works transparently: $ echo foo > $'t-\xef\x80\x81' $ cat $'t-\xef\x80\x81' foo $ cat $'t-\x01' foo I'll apply the patch shortly.
