Message:
There was no feedback, so I'm assuming unicode filenames work now as
expected, closing this item.

LAME 3.99 has some experimental unicode support for Window builds. Some
feedback is welcome.

Message:
"add Unicode filename support to Windows LAME."  would be the shortest and
logical way  to resolve this problem... But anyway of course thank you for
advice, it seems I'l use "1. Write to a non-Unicode temp file and rename it
to the correct file name later." variant as universal and the simplest :-)

Message:
Two possible solutions:

1. Write to a non-Unicode temp file and rename it to the correct file name
later.
2. Use the GetShortPathName API function to retrieve the non-Unicode 8.3
filename of the file you want to write to.

I recommend using method 1, because short filename support can be disabled
for NTFS filesystems and therefore is not guaranteed to be available.

I do not see any need to add Unicode filename support to Windows LAME.

Message:
The problem is not in frontends, the problem is in the lame.exe, it does
not understand unicode file names. Not read,nor write.

Delirium! I'm developer of audio comverter under windows. I use lame.exe to
encode files via stdin. lame.exe doe not understand unicode filenames. I'm
Russian,so I use russian localized windows, but I need to encode for
example J'y Suis Jamais Allé.wav. To get out  J'y Suis Jamais Allé.wav
BUT NOT J'y Suis Jamais Alle.wav I have to say Lame encode J'y Suis Jamais
Allé.wav , but it does not understand J'y Suis Jamais Allé.wav filename
because of "é". To encode it I have set up French for programs which do
not understand unicode, or trim "J'y Suis Jamais Allé.wav" to ansi "J'y
Suis Jamais Alle.wav". Now you understand me ?

Message:
At least under Linux the LAME frontend understands unicode in UTF-8
encoding. On Windows it doesn't matter much, because Windows Users do use
GUI programs and seldom come in touch with a commandline shell. So, it'll
be a nice to have feature, we might add later.
