Umlaut problem in file browser
« on: March 15, 2009, 01:54 AM »
I think umlauts are not processed properly in file browsing mode.
Folders with such characters ARE found when just typing in something (normal mode) but when switching to file browsing mode they can't be accessed by writing them out. I think the screenshots are self-explanatory; The first and the last one show that the folder is displayed (as a child of the parent folder) and the second one shows that I cannot access the folder. Even writing the whole string does not help; pressing enter does nothing then.

Edit: Important observation: When renaming the folder to "übungsblätter" [ü instead of Ü], the problem does not occur (using ü in the input works correctly). Nevertheless this seems like a bug to me. Furthermore the input should be case-insensitive also for umlauts (typing Ü with the renamed folder yields no results)... I bet, somewhere there's a proper toLowerCase-function or something like that.
