Hi,
draft 15 says in chapter 5.9. "Literal Data Packet (Tag 11)"
[...]
- File name as a string (one-octet length, followed by a file
name). This may be a zero-length string. Commonly, if the source
of the encrypted data is a file, this will be the name of the
encrypted file. An implementation MAY consider the file name in
the literal packet to be a more authoritative name than the
actual file name.
[...]
Is this filename (string) treated as UTF-8?
How to convert special chars (e.g. German umlauts) if its not UTF-8?
