I retested on pinta-1.5-preview-20130309 on Windows XP. I can't replicate it in the way I have made it in #1 (maybe instructions are not the best, so I am writing it more clear bellow).
@ ealis2001, can you please replicate bellow instructions on Windows 7 (I only have Windows XP).
TEST 1: NON-ENGLISH LATIN CHARACTERS DIRECTORY
1. Open CMD and type in the command:
md c:\šđčćž
2.
a) In Pinta. New image 1000 x 1000 px.
b) Paintbrush and draw something on canvas.
c) From toolbar click on Save button.
d) Type in some file name like: test1.png and click on Save button.
e) File | Close to close an image.
f) Open button from toolbar and select file from path c:\šđčćž\test.png
e) File opens without a problem. So it looks like this bug was at least partially fixed. Now non-English latin characters directory works fine.
TEST 2: CYRILLIC CHARACTERS DIRECTORY
1. Open CMD and type in the command:
md c:\Адресат
2. Repeat step 2 (all of the sub-steps) from above "test 1".
At 2d) I have typed in test1.png (and trying to save in above directory name) and after clicking on Save button I got an error message: "A file name .png already exists. Do you want to replace it?" --> so Pinta does not crash anymore, but file still can't be saved. It eats "file name" name.
