This must be an oversight (or maybe something they didn't implement because of lack of time?). They have all the machinery in place to do on the fly conversion of filenames, it is used for HFS (old-style HFS, not HFS+) and SMB filesystems, where you specify the character set of the filesystem at mount time, and they do NFC-NFD conversion in the system call interface. -- - Jack Jansen <Jack.Jansen@oratrix.com> http://www.cwi.nl/~jack - - If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman -
