Except that LANG isn't *the* native encoding. It is at least debatable whether it should be used to interpret file system name strings. (And it's rather hacked, since it is 'LANGuage' and not encoding, even though there are locales like en_us.utf8.) In my opinion it would be saner nowadays to assume file names to be in utf8 and warn if they are not, and use the setting in LANG for console I/O only. Andreas -- "Totally trivial.
