Another point occurs to me (yes I'm talking to myself again). UAE currently
does no translation between character sets in filenames. This would lead me
to believe there may be similar problems on other platforms when using Amiga
filenames with characters in the $80-$FF range if your locale settings use
something other than ISO-8859-1. Can anybody verify this?
