[Gretl-users] An error occurs when I open a *.gdt under a none-ASCII named directory

Dear Allin: I noticed that the interface for opening user files has been changed recently in the cvs version for Windows (my installed version was built on 2009-04-11). However, I found this new interface through [File/Open data/User file] caused an error: "No such file or directory" when my *.gdt is placed under a directory named with "Chinese" characters as well as a *.gdt file named by a Chinese filename. It is surprising because I did not recall any kind of this error with filenames or directories in Chinese before. So, I went back to test the previous officially released version 1.8.0. The interface of opening user files in that version do work fine with filenames or directories in Chinese. I returned to the CVS version (built on 2009-04-11) to test other open files functions, such as script files/session files with filenames or directories in Chinese. No error occurs. Do you have any clue about this error? Thanks Yi-Nung Yang Associate Professor Dept. of International Trade Chung Yuan Christian University, Taiwan. http://yaya.it.cycu.edu.tw/gretl/
