#1463 Save File and UnicodeDecodeError happens
When I save the file, error happens, and open the log file, I can see the error information, see follows:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "taskcoachlib/thirdparty/smartdatetimectrl.pyo", line 1522, in OnLeftUp
File "taskcoachlib/thirdparty/smartdatetimectrl.pyo", line 1803, in init
File "taskcoachlib/thirdparty/smartdatetimectrl.pyo", line 1586, in init__

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
I guess that it happens as I save the file as a Chinese name.
No, Unicode filenames should work. This doesn't happen while saving but when drawing the date/time picker; I'm looking into it.
