E.g., if a program tries to create a file using an utf8-incompatible filename, what happens? Does the fopen() fail? Would this normally be a problem? E.g., do tar and similar programs convert utf8-incompatible filenames to utf8 upon extraction if my locale (or wherever the fs encoding is taken from) is set to use utf-8? If they don't, then what happens with archives containing utf8-incompatible filenames? - Marcus _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
