Moho Forum

This problem has been bothering me for a long time. Today, on Discord, I saw SimplSam's sharing of utf8_filenames.lua, and with a try it out attitude, I didn't expect it to really solve the problem(Chinese and Japanese, excluding Korean).

Just copy utf8_filenames.lua, files that were previously not supported for reading can now be read, but I have provided a simple script file to demonstrate.

method:
1. Copy utf8_filenames.lua to the folder: C:\Program Files\Moho 14\Resources\Support\Scripts\Utility
2. Copy xsz_ReadnonEnglishfile.lua to the folder: C:\Program Files\Moho 14\Resources\Support\Scripts\Tool
3. Open Moho and use this script to test file reading. If successful, the content of the first line of the file will be returned.

Good work, but you should not be modifying files in C:\Program Files\Moho 14\, but rather use your <Custom Content Folder>

So essentially - someone should only need to place 'utf8_filenames.lua' in <Custom Content Folder>\Scripts\Utility\

I tried this, but I think it only works with non-English filename characters that match your computers' codepage / system locale.

Sorry, I overlooked this issue because I have been using Moho without setting up the<Custom Content Folder>myself.
Due to frequent script creation and concerns about program crashes and data loss, I created my own one click installation and uninstallation of Moho and scripts. Not setting<Custom Content Folder>can save me some time and avoid some folder confusion.
