Hi Martin,

now it works very nice and mkfat.py is consistent with the FAT server in
that unicode names are encoded and displayed correctly. I am still
puzzled by when I mount the image under Linux, I see questionmarks
instead of the unicode characters. The same is for entries created by
our FAT server. Perhaps Linux, as Vojta noticed, defaults to some other
encoding?
