If you are getting the filename from the FileChooser, the "Note:" here might be helpful: http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1FileChooser.html std::string -> ustring involves an automatic encoding conversion, so that might be confusing things. -- Murray Cumming [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
