You cannot load or write (may only have been one of those operations, strangely) a file containing non-ASCII characters with the C/C++ libraries if you target Win. If you target Linux, those work out of the box due to the file system doing the lifting. With windows we had to use the short file name (e.g. FILEN~1.EXT) as a workaround. Also, you have to watch out for what the library does when it writes to (Edit: Windows) network shares - we've seen it write NaNs where there were values in the data it should save, maybe a latency issue, maybe a configuration issue - but not something you get told about. I would like to move away from it.
