I was not sure if this would present problems for
uploads, but given my recent experience with huge
filenames full of commas, I thought it might be worthwhile raising the issue.
I tried uploading a file named
"AdministratorPasswörter.pdf" from my Windows
desktop machine to PmWiki 2.1.3 running on
Apache/Windoze 2000 Server. It worked just fine
and preserved the filename. The download link has the appropriate URL encoding.
