registry team mailing list archive

[Vladimir Mityukov <mityukov@xxxxxxxxx>]

It seems to me (or, maybe, I've missed it) that nobody mentioned an
option to manually select the charset for filenames in the archive. This
option can be added e.g., to "Archive Manager" and so on (DE-specific
tools).

I understand, that auto-detection is highly desired, but it's quite
problematic, as far as I can see in this ticket. On the other side, I'm
pretty sure, that manual selection option _itself_ would solve the
problem for 60%+ of users. Others would find solutions (involving this
new charset selector) over Internet. Currently, there are no answers
(except of using windows/wine for un[re]packing, or quite complex
approaches, like fuse-zip) even for advanced users, which I think is too
bad.
