Hi Mark,
No, this problem has not been fixed on Mac OS X.
This is no reason the give up on a project. You could use AppleScript
on Mac OS X and shortFilePath() on Windows. Replacing so many routines
with AppleScript is no fun, but it is possible. On Windows, it is just
a sight inconvenience.
Has this bug been reported? Which number does it have?
Best regards,
Mark Schonewille

Had to give up a project a couple months ago that was being derailed
by a Rev bug that had no workaround. Was wondering if anyone can
tell me if this is fixed in 2.9. In the message window, I type the
following
answer file "The prompt..."
answer (there is a file it)
This returns false if the file name contains certain extended ASCII
characters, such as the Czech Ř (R with caron) or Ů (U with ring
above) or Polish Ł (L with stroke).
Can anyone confirm that this bug still exists in 2.9? It is a deal-
breaker.
Thanks.
Mark
