Description Artem Yankov 2003-03-20 12:16:57 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:          Linux

When looking ftp folder in konqueror, all names of files and folders with Cyrilllic letters are wrong. There is "codepage" or "charachter set" another. In konqueror there is no "CODEPAGE" menu to change it.

True, there is currently no way to tell the FTP dirparser what the encoding is on the 
remote server, so it just converts using Latin1. 
 
From kdelibs/kioslave/ftp/ftp.cc around line 1778: 
                    // maybe fromLocal8Bit would be better in some cases, 
                    // but what proves that the ftp server is in the same encoding 
                    // than the user ?? 
 
Maybe this should be a wishlist item so that a new feature is introduced?
