Dear list,

I have the following sample:

   \startext
     \insertpages[ξ_file.pdf]
   \stoptext

Using latest on Linux, it works perfectly fine. On Windows (I’m still on
Win7), it doesn’t work unless I replace "ξ" with an ASCII character.

Could this be fixed or is it really a limiatation of Windows?
It depends on the version and engine. For luatex we also depends on the interfacing that the texlive ecosystem provides. As Akira mentions, there have been some developments in that area but I didn't test that yet (no files with utf names here) but I trust his (always done) testing of context. That will trickle into future binaries (which is somewhat tricky as we have experimental as well as current).

In luametatex things are different. There all windows specific operations have wide-character support, that is, the utf8 goes via utf16 and codepages and such: filenames, environment variables, command line arguments, whatever.

That said: I never use non-ascii non-spacy names ... it's the most portable.
