#260 Not opening file containing non-ASCII - russian characters

[Ernestas Gruodis]

Hi, when I try to open the file, which name contains non ASCII characters (Russian letters) - the application not starts. But if I open DjVuLibre from Start menu - and later "File -> Open" the same file - it opens it. What could be the problem here? My OS now Windows XP.

I have an idea to fix this (at least partially) but I have very little means to actually test it.
Are you able to compile a new version of djview or are you using the official binaries?
Regards,

Was the bug fixed by the last windows release?

closed for lack of answer.
I believe this has been fixed by the latest git changes, but could not test thoroughly.
