Bug #16157

filelist module translates all filename with non-acii characters to ___________

Description
When you upload a file with non acii characters file name (for me, chinese), the filelist module translate the file name to ____.whatever. If you change the filename back to chinese in a ssh shell, the filelist module reads it correctly. Only when you upload with it cause a problem.
(issue imported from #M3511)
TYPO3 only handles ASCII filenames, so it auto-translates all unknown chars to ASCII. It does a transliteration where possible (latin accents, cyrillic), but will fail on all other script systems.
Yeah. I know that, Martin. You explained this to me in the dev list. I post this bugs here cause I hope that this will be fixed one day.
IGideon, I remember. I repeated my answer for those who read this bug and do not know my answer on the list.
Although knowing my answer I had IMHO made more sense to file a feature request for UTF-8 filenames, rather than file a bug report for Chinese.
Since 4.1 a UTF-8 file system can be enabled by setting forceCharset to UTF-8.
This will code chinese signs with three or four bytes.
Can someone please test, if the issue is fixed? My Windows does not support chinese signs in filenames...

Solved with the utf-8 filesystem - works well for many of our clients. Therefore I assume this is not relevant anymore. Feel free to reopen this issue if my assumption was wrong.
