Can anyone on Windows check the following bugs for me?
I'm suffering Windows XP (XP == Windows 2000 + even more useless CRUD) today solely for the purpose of doing some Inkscape testing. (Damn thing is forcing me to use Windows Media Player just to play a CD, bloated yuck.)
sourceforge doesn't include a search by ID like bugzilla which is rather annoying so in case anyone else is willing to help here are direct links to the reports.
925033 win32: non-ascii filenames still don't work
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=925033&gro...
I'm hoping Inserting a few unusual characters using 'charmap' will be enough to test this.
using Inkscape Latest (2004 10 26 2:16 pm) on windows XP http://cortijodelrio.net/~inkscape/win32/LATEST.zip
choose Save As, (standard gtk file chooser) saved as abc.svg without problem
tried saving as 'abc.......ab'
(the dots are unknown characters, some Hebrew some Arabic insterted using windows charmap. the two characters after abc look like accented versions of 'A' and 'a' but the other characters do not even display in the text entry and instead I just get empty rectangles)
got the following error.
Could not build file name from 'file:///U:/Desktop' and 'abc.......ab': Invalid byte sequence in conversion input
I'm not sure why but I'm not getting a console window popping up with other any other information as I might have expected.
I'll be around for another hour or two and I can try something else if you make it clear what you want me to try and do.
Hope that helps.
