Using Info-Zip's marvellous Zip today under Windows.
Zipping up some files with "unicode" filenames, Zip tells me that it can't zip them up because of that.
Hello? UTF-8?
How hard would it be for file names in Zip files to be UTF-8?
On unix this ought to happen anyway because filenames are just byte arrays?
It wouldn't kill anyone to (re)define that filenames in Zip files are UTF-8.
That is exactly what UTF-8 is good at.
Maybe I might go and sniff around the Info-Zip web site to see if anything gives.
