Hello, I have a file that contains names of other files (in the same directory) and need to load these other files when the user selects the list file. Easy. Except that the file was created by a MS Windows program and the names are in system encoding (whatever it means, usually something like CP1252). Gtk+ functions provide the name in UTF-8 and on Win32 the GLib encoding is also UTF-8. So all I can get from Gtk+ and GLib functions are UTF-8 encoded paths. To load the referenced files it is necessary to either: - convert the names from the list to GLib encoding (UTF-8) and combine it with the directory name of the list file and use g_fopen() to open the files - convert the directory name of the list file from GLib encoding to the system encoding and use fopen() to open the other files But I don't know how to do either reliably. Is there anything in GLib that can help me? Yeti _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
