[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52211] saveas does mess up UTF8 filenames

[Markus Mützel]

Update of bug #52211 (project octave):

                  Status:               Confirmed => Duplicate              
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #2:

I updated the patch in bug #49118 to include a fix for the issue here.
However, you would also need to manually change the code page of the Editor to
UTF-8 or manually convert the file name to UTF-8:

saveas (fh, native2unicode (uint8 ('Längs.pdf')))


Octave should probably best seamlessly convert strings from the code page used
in the editor to its internal codepage (UTF-8).
I think there was a bug report about this somewhere. But I can't find it at
the moment.

Closing as a duplicate of bug #49118 because the main issue is solved by the
patch there.
