So what to do with Unicode filenames?

[Stuart Halliday]

Ah right I see now.

I suggest you see if another similar product will perform better?

Unison for example?

An alternative would be to zip the offending files first and name the zip
file something safe, use rsync to transport them and unzip them at the
other end?
