GIO is have many useful functions, and special for unicode. Example, i have chinese filename named "/test/哈哈", when i use below function doesFileExist "/test/哈哈" to test, it's return False, same problem with `doesDirectoryExist`, they're all not support unicode well. But function `fileQueryFileType` works well, it support unicode. > If there are people using > gnomefs, then, by all means, we can still create a cabal package for it. > > Please do not start producing more bindings to more functions.

Axel, i know you're very busy and want to release next version as quick as possible. And you haven't time review/test new GIO code before release next version. For save your time and build more stable GIO patches. I have build new gio-branch (http://patch-tag.com/r/AndyStewart/gio-branch) for add new APIs, and i will merge my branch to main repo when you have time to review. Before that, i will use those new APIs in my project for test. What do you think?
