Encoding (Ukrainian) problem in Vista
For some reasons M$ changed something in Windows related with encodings so that some progams, if they are not vista compatible or not with full UTF8 or Win1251 (do not know exactly i'm not a programmer) support can't handle with Ukrainian locale (keyboard layout). it's impossible to type in such programs with ukrainian characters. It types instead only "???????????".
With Russian locale everything is OK, but Russian and Ukrainian use same encodings Win1251.[/img]

You need to set the language for non-Unicode programs to Ukrainian. Total Commander is a non-Unicode program, and can only show ANSI names in many of its dialog boxes.

Hmm, I don't think that I can do anything about it then. Let's hope that Microsoft will fix it soon...
