Hello,
I am trying to run par2 to repair an archive that has an apostrophe in
the name. Not a single quote. This archive was created on Windows.
File name should be
Joe’s file.part01.rar
If I do ls I get
Joe?s file.part01.rar
ls -b I get
Joe\302\222s\ file.part01.rar
Running par2 *.par2 runs par2 cmdline but all the files are missing and
par2 says all the files are missing.
Target: "Joe’s file.part01.rar" - missing.
Target: "Joe’s file.part02.rar" - missing.
Target: "Joe’s file.part03.rar" - missing.
Target: "Joe’s file.part04.rar" - missing.
Doesn't see the repair files either.
How can I escape these characters or run the program? I have searched
for a day to see how to run this program. I have seen others ask the
same question as well.
Is there a way to use 'exec' or another option?
I have tried to change the terminal character set with no luck or just
haven't found the correct character set yet.
I cannot rename the files as the par2 and repair files look for the
original file names.
I don't even know how to enter the characters in the terminal.
I notice if I look at the file name in a graphics file manager
(dolphin), I just get a square with some unreadable code in it. Same if
I try to look at it in a directory listing from a program. Am I missing
a font set for this and would that make it work better.
As I cannot confirm the language the file was created in, I may be
missing the correct font on my system to work with it as well.
Robin
