Full Discussion: cp does not like filenames with accents?
Operating Systems Linux Slackware cp does not like filenames with accents? Post 302750071 by jim mcnamara on Sunday 30th of December 2012 08:08:39 PM

Is it imperative that the native charset remain in tact on the destination side?
If that is the case: Can you set the locale of the process doing the copy to match what is on the disc? If you do this every app you run against your will have to be set to use that special locale.

Otherwise use tar and iconv
Code:
mkdir /newdir
cd /mnt/cd0/STORE1
tar -c --file /dev/tty   |  ( cd /newdir ; | iconv [conversion options here] | tar xf )

[conversion options here] == you need to supply this.
