| Subject: | unicode not displayed properly in getOpenFile |
Directories whose names contain non-Latin unicode characters are not
displayed properly in getOpenFile.
To reproduce the bug, execute the attached script. It creates a
directory with Greek characters in its name, then pops up a dialog box
to open a file. The directory doesn't show up properly in the file
dialog. The program writes output to the terminal showing the versions
of Tk and perl, and on unix it will also verify that the name of the
created directory has Greek letters and that the script itself is
encoded in unicode.
Info about the system on which I observed the bug: Tk version is
804.029. Perl version is 5.14.2. Ubuntu 12.04.1.
