Re: Files named in Chinese characters couldn't display properly in Fedora 12

Thanks a lot. You are very right about this problem! Now, Fedora can display Chinese file names properly although the font doesn't look pretty. :-D

One more question, when I used Putty to SSH the server, all files named in Chinese couldn't display properly. Is that because of the Putty doesn't support Chinese? If it is the case, which SSH tools do you suggest?

Thanks for reply.

1.  Where did the imported files come from?

Those files were copied from Windows XP through ssh.

2.  Are you certain that the file names are in UTF8 and not, for
example, GB2312?

Most of files are .doc or .xls. Do you know how to convert them to GB2312 ?

It's not the contents of your files being in UTF8, GB2312, or another character set.

It's the filenames themselves being coded in the UTF8 or GB2312 character set.

You say you've set your system locale to zh_CN.UTF8. This indicates that your filenames must be coded in UTF8 to be shown correctly on your terminal.

Try this, in the directory with your files:

ls -l | iconv -f GB2312 -t UTF8

If you now see your files named in proper Chinese characters, this means that your filenames are coded in GB2312. You simply need to rename these files from GB2312 to UTF8. Probably something like this:

ls | while read filename
do
mv -i "$filename" "`echo \"$filename\" | iconv -f GB2312 -t UTF8`"
done
