Hi, >You should not deal with the decomposition of file names in clisp. The devil lies in the details. For instance, there's a bug which I've not chased down in the area of ssh, fuse-ssh(on Linux), Emacs and readline. Somewhere, when logging remotely from Linux into MacOS, or when copying files via fuse-ssh (on Linux) to MacOS, bash's readline got confused by Umlauts like äöü. It appears that for some files they were decomposed, for others not. As a consequence, completion and backspace behaved oddly. The Finder showed all of them alike, but IIRC Emacs noticed a difference (or was it the terminal that did not display everything as expected?). I'm sorry I don't remember the details. (MacOS 10.5.8) Preliminary conclusion: decomposition is not transparent to the app... >I believe that it does not occur on NFS or SMB/CIFS mounts. The Mac documentation that Pascal recently linked to says NFS: don't know, not specified [I guess it depends on the host]; SMB: no decomposition. >For example, by forcing *PATHNAME-ENCODING* to be UTF-8 on MacOS X. This sounds very reasonable. Regards, Jörg Höhle |
