Adam ♿[screenreader users, the following contains a lot of non-alphabet characters]<a href="https://aus.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> friends, what do I do with a filename like "''$'\303\201''rst'$'\303\255\303\260''ir - Hvel - 12 Unfold.flac'"? (<a href="https://arstidirsom.bandcamp.com/album/hvel" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstidirsom.bandcamp.com/album/hvel</a> if you're wondering)The correct, or original filename from the zip file is "Árstíðir - Hvel - 12 Unfold.flac"If I set LANG to something with UTF-8, I get _rst__ir - Hvel - 12 Unfold.flac, but ls *12\ Unfold.flac does not find it.What's the equivalent of hexdump for filenames? This particular example is on ZFS but I have seen the same on ext4 and btrfs so I am sure it's not (entirely) filesystem specific.If you search for this answer, what keywords did you use? I am having trouble here.<a href="https://aus.social/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AskFedi</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Internationalisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Internationalisation</a>

Tirifto :flago_esperanto:So apparently server administrators on the <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> won’t be able to name custom emoji in their native languages and expect them to work in Mastodon, because according to <a class="u-url mention" href="https://mastodon.social/@Gargron" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Gargron</a> non-ASCII signs are hard to input and diacritics shouldn’t change the meaning of words:<a href="https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/28572#issuecomment-1878952504" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/28572#issuecomment-1878952504</a>No, in my view emoji identifiers shouldn’t be ‘straightforward to input for everyone’. Custom emoji are local to a server; they should be straightforward to input for the users of that server. People from other servers don’t ever have to type their names (unless their administrators choose to add them to their own server), so their ability to type them is completely irrelevant.Why should a server made specifically for people speaking Russian or Japanese have to use ASCII for their emoji identifiers? Their users have no trouble typing Cyrillic or Kanji signs; it’s what they already do when they make a post; it’s how they normally talk. Why force them to use a different language/alphabet when typing emoji identifiers?Moreover, linking the username issue makes no sense whatsoever. Usernames are typed across servers and it makes sense to impose stricter technical limitations so more people can read, write and recognise them. This is not the case for emoji; you rarely ever need to type other servers’ emoji identifiers. Normally you don’t even get to see them; you only get to see the picture they represent! Assuming server admins do their job responsibly, there is zero added confusion for anyone involved.I understand that Unicode is complex, language support is challenging and compromises might be necessary at times. But can we please accept the existence of different languages and writing systems as a reality that we should try to accommodate for, rather than change or circumvent? Yes, <code>a</code> and <code>á</code> are different signs. Yes, they might radically change the meaning of a word. That’s not a proposition for us to accept or reject; that’s the reality of our multilingual world, and should be the basis of our discussion.<a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/lang_en" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lang_en</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/accessibility" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibility</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/a11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#a11y</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/custom_emoji" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#custom_emoji</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/development" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#development</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/emoji" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emoji</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/emojos" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emojos</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/free_software" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#free_software</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/internationalisation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#internationalisation</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/internationalization" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#internationalization</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/i18n" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#i18n</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/languages" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#languages</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/localisation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localisation</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/localization" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localization</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/l10n" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#l10n</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/multilingual" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#multilingual</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/programming" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/software" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#software</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://jam.xwx.moe/tag/unicode" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Unicode</a>

Sumana HarihareswaraIn May we held a US memorial service for my mother, who died earlier this year.
