Hi!

I tried the binary of mkisofs from
http://www.sbox.tugraz.at/home/t/tplank/ and encountered problems (
running Windows 2003 Server Enterprise edition )
with non-US chatacters in filenames ( see below )

The binary maintainer ( Thomas Plank, tplank AT gmx DOT at ) said :

The I conatcted Joeg ( the cdrtools pacjage author, "Joerg Schilling"
<schilling AT fokus DOT fraunhofer DOT de> )and he said :

So I'm here. Is there any UTF/Unicode support in cygwin, to make mkisofs
work ?

Details about the problem :

G:\temp\cdrecord\2.01a34>mkisofs.exe -J -o ../image_chartest4.iso
../../chartest
