Oops...
The example of such an unicode name used is "écolier-fonts" .
Then consider any user in non-latin1 locale. For example, my locale is
Russian. I have no "é" on my keyboard...
Well, I can use cut and paste, when I have a mouse and the text is
already shown on my desktop.
But what I have to do, when use just the cmdline interface? IOW, without
any GUI -- just the Linux console, or remote ssh session? How can I fill
the "é" character then?
It seems that the only way to operate with such a filename is to use
shell wildcards: "rpm -qa \?colier-fonts" etc.
Does it mean, that the command line interface as well as any other
non-GUI core applications are now deprecated? ;)
