 From the JDK JavaDocs:

/*Note:* The World Wide Web Consortium Recommendation 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html40/appendix/notes.html#non-ascii-chars> states 
that UTF-8 should be used. Not doing so may introduce incompatibilites./

Therefore German file names are not supported, and therefore I will add 
a note in the documentation.
