No, I didn't. I thought about using SysToUTF8 when reading, but when I'm
sure the system file names are not encoded UTF-8 that would have been
rather senseless. It don't know exactly, but any non ascii char would
have been encoded wrongly, wouldn't it?

I'll check that out of curiosity ... ;)

Thanks.
