> Hi folks,
>
>  A number of STEP related bugs have been reported and at this point in
> time I suspect the problems have something to do with character
> translations.
>
> Bug 1:  On Windows, STEP files with non-ASCII characters in the path
> are not correctly processed by the 3D plugin.  In this case all code is
> running within one process and I believe I have a fix.
>
> Bug 2: On Windows files with the extension "STEP" don't seem to load.
> I'm not sure what's going on here yet; I need to read up on a few
> wx widgets.
>
> Bug 3: Well, no one has reported such a bug yet, but the underlying
> problem with Bug 1 should also affect the external kicad2step tool,
> but only on Windows.
>
> Has anyone observed such bugs and have anything to add?
>
> - Cirilo
