I received a zip file from a Mac OS user with several hundred of .jpg files, some with very long names. Opening the .zip file wit 7-zip on my Win 7 machine, lots of these files have very weird characters; I guess they were encoded like this in the zipping process. Here is a sample
Õìüþ½╣µûÄþ��║Þ░▒ .jpg
Some files have more legible names like
Histoire dÔÇÖO.jpg
Wich should be Histoire d'O.jpg
so I can guess that ÔÇÖ
is a weird encoding for the single quote '
character, I can see this matching in many other files aswell.
Should I tell him to send them again in some other format? Is there a way to open these files on my machine with correct names?
