Hi France,

what filesystem are you on?

I know its not very helpful to say: “works on my machine”, but on macOS I could simply use your example as a path:

Can you try creating a file with that name from your Terminal or outside of BaseX?

You might then try file:list() to get a glimpse whether or not the filesystem changed something.

Hope this helps. In my opinion and experience for portability its safest to stick to ASCII.

Best

Michael

Any chance this limit can be overcome?
