Linux / *nix / Windows? If Linux / *nix, what is the encoding your file-system is using? Most modern systems are UTF-8, but if it is an old file-system, it might be something else. That can cause issues. GLib deals in system-encoded names, so if you filesystem is ISO 8859-1, it can cause problems if gerbv is assuming filenames can be printed as UTF-8. All GTK things need UTF-8, and you need to use the appropriate filename conversion routines in GLib. Similarly - althoguh one I'm not so sure how to fix, is that you should printf translated (or all) strings in the correct encoding that the terminal is using. Since gerbv is a GUI app, it will be using UTF-8 internally, but that might not be correct for printf to a console. Fortunately though (or is it?), most consoles / filesystems are UTF-8 encoding now-adays, so these bugs are likely to linger without causing any harm. (Same in geda/gschem, libgeda etc...) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Julian Lamb (thepurlieu) Date: 2010-04-08 13:24 Message: Hello, Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, I can't seem to replicate the crash when I make a test file with "é" in the name. Could you possibly attach the particular file to this bug report so I can see what is causing it? It may be due to something inside the file. If the file contains sensitive material, you can also email it to me directly at [email protected], if you don't want to make it public.
