Summary: serious troubles with folders with non-ASCII chars on WinXP
Initial Comment:
On Windows XP, you cannot save a new file to any
directory that has non-ASCII characters in it. For
example, if someone has an accented E in their
username, then their home folder will be in
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME, where USERNAME is
the name with the accented E.
The work around is to save to the root of C:\, then
move the file to the directory with the non-ASCII
chars. After that, it is possible to save changes.
But the only way to open the file is to double-click it
and let it open via file associations. File->Open
crashes Pd-0.40-2 and nothing happens on
Pd-0.39.2-extended-test5.
This has been confirmed on Pd-0.39.2-extended-test5 and
Pd-0.40-0, on Windows XP US and Spanish editions.

Here's an example error message when I tried to save a new file:
error: C:/Documents and
Settings/hans/Desktop/testbug-üé/Untitled-1.pd: No such file
or directory
