Re: [ripperX-devel] release goals for 2.7.3

Hi Paul,

Thank you for this, it's definitely in the right direction.  I was looking
at the remove_non_unix_chars() function the other day wanting to rip it out.

I was curious about the choice of g_local_from_utf8() instead of
g_filename_from_utf8() [0]  I'm not sure if any locale uses different
encoding for filenames than the C runtime.

In any event, I think your patch is how I want to get started on this.  I
haven't noticed any problems yet here, but need to test with some CDs I have
that use extended character sets.

Thanks,
Tony
