Unicode-aware

[Wodd]

I read that OpenMPT is now "fully Unicode-aware." What does that mean exactly? Does it apply only to reading of module file names? I noticed that, when naming module components (channels, patterns, samples, instruments, and sequences), the characters display correctly in the text input fields (sometimes)*. But, they don't display correctly in the tree view. For example, when I placed a superscript four character in the sequence name box, it displayed a digit four character in the tree view. Many characters (such as Japanese text or emoticons) display 1 or 2 question marks in the tree view. Switching away from the named component and switching back to it replaces the Unicode character inserted with 1 or 2 question marks. I am using code revision 9021.

* (sometimes): When I loaded a file that was named ↓.wav, both the sample name and the file name are ?, not ↓. The audio works with no problems. But, the name looks odd.

I will answer this by quoting the full changelog item instead of just the two words that you picked: "OpenMPT's file handling is now fully unicode-aware".
If it's still not clear, there is even a forum post explaning it: https://forum.openmpt.org/index.php?topic=5827.0

Ah
Thank you, Saga Musix. I did look at that, but must have forgotten what I read.
