Try to create a file like
"20070610-0400-AbcÜåÇ.txt", and then delete it.
Examine the content of INFO2 and you'll see that the filename is listed
twice (Ascii - Unicode, I guess) like all other deleted files, but
triggered by the non-english filename characters of the file deleted, the
Ascii representation is overwritten to the first two characters from the
original filename, then four random hex characters, a digit, the tilde
character, and finally a last digit, before the extension. The above
mentioned could have been "20B4E7~1.TXT"
I have not tried with files containing non-english characters in one of the
first two positions of the filename or in the extension - either in the
first three positions of the extension or after.
Rifiuti lists the shortened names even if the læonger names still seem to
be left in the INFO2 file, although as a Unicode string.
Naturally, Rifiuti gives a wrong impression of files deleted, if the
deleted files held non-english characters - common in descriptions (and
thus the filenames) of files containing word procesing, spreadsheet or
picture files, etc.
