(IIRC URI's are encoded in UTF-8.) No, filenames are not in ASCII encoding. GLib has functions to convert from and to filename encoding but it would go beyond the scope of this mailing-list to explain this here. Since I have already taken care of the issue in SVN, I don't think we need to discuss this further. > > (3) Showing a directory name does only work for local files, it breaks > > for remote files. > > This is incorrect, I checked for that case and it shows what I believe > to be the correct parallel to 'directory name': > for 'http://foo.bar/baz/bif.gif' it shows 'http://foo.bar/baz/' > (the only other parallel I could see making sense would be /baz/ -- > which strikes me as not-very-helpful.) It would have broken on Windows where the path separator for filenames is different from the path separator in URIs.
