[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49118] GUI editor cannot run file in folder name with umlaut

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #37, bug #49118 (project octave):

Attached is a patch that should be working a lto better. The issues mentioned
in comment #35 no longer occur.
It uses the wide character API in Windows where possible which enables the
access to directories with non-ASCII characters. I had to resort to short 8.3
filenames for the H5F part because there is no wide character interface to
it.

I am not really sure where the boundaries of Octave are. Please, let me know
if something needs to be changed. Maybe move the conversion to wide characters
(and back) into the wrappers?

This might also solve part of bug #42036 (directories with non-ASCII
characters). CC'ing Tatsuro because he seems to have worked on that bug, too.

(file #38945)
