Of course, if my very favorite DirEntry.h also failed in this case, it is certainly not enough to display the file correctly on the monitor, but also to allow access to it via the Open command. I don't know if there is already a function (maybe there is), but if _MapUnicode can convert 2-byte text to correctly displayed strings, then I somehow miss the possibility of using it to access the file.
It is probably not possible at all, because the IDE would directly support it. And it does not support it. Do a test: Create a folder with characters in a language other than English, put a BAS file in it and then try to open it via the IDE. It doesn't work. The folder is displayed (with a garbled name) and when you try to open it, its contents are not displayed because its name is incorrect. I can't deal with this problem.
