Sorry, I disagree, this is the ICS FTP client listing from FileZilla server, all names are UTF-8, the first one is ANSI only characters, which can be clearly seen since the character after the escape is unchanged. The last name is three character sequences. If the FTP client tries to download such a file, it will fail. type=file;modify=20080806153616;size=200; test £½ ¶ ⢠« ».txt type=file;modify=20080806153616;size=200; testunicode.txt type=file;modify=20080806153616;size=200; testâ²âºâ¼ââ²âºâ.txt ICS will only work if the server returns ANSI file names. It may be that FileZilla accepts ANSI commands as well as UTF-8, as we could, so it may sometimes appear to work, but properly written clients will fail. > It also works OK when client is FileZilla. Because the ICS FTP server does not announce itself as supporting UTF-8, older client supporting ANSI will still work. > There are many french ICS users and none have yet > contacted me to say it doesn't work as expected. Maybe they are all using ANSI FTP servers.
