Re: PSPP-BUG: Problem with special characters in directory - file opening

Yes, this is bug 42081

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42081

Last time I tried to fix it, I decided that it was not easy without

     Dear Ben and Others,
     
     I am using PSPP version 8.4 on Windows 7. I have checked this issue with
     Linux and I did not encountered any problems.
     
     For other windows users my temporary answer is just to move all databases
     directly onto hard drive to omit /User direction.
     
     Best regards,
