Subject: Flash Renamer Unicode support
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2007 18:39:46 +0100Hi,
The problem with unicode is known, but I am unable to do anything about it,
since Microsoft has decided not to update Visual Basic 6 (the programming
language that I'm using) anymore. The only solution would be a complete
rewrite in another language, and that's not an option at this moment...
