What 7zip? Native or Cygwin? Better: Create a shell script which creates the file which makes trouble and send the script. Shortcut: Tell me what the actual filename is. I can switch to the german keyboard layout if necessary. > Mind that I use a German language Windows version - if the above doesn't > work for you, I can give you remote access if you want. Sorry, but, no. I will very certainly not do remote debugging. Btw., why don't you debug this? Strace, gdb, and the sysinternal tools are all free as in beer. As a start and as long as there's only one file in the test dir, you could also send the strace output of `ls test' as attachment to this list. This might help already.
