qs package looks not to support multibyte string path/filename at windows about qs HOT 5 CLOSED

You're welcome! I'll leave this open if you don't mind to see if I can find a workaround eventually.

This is a hard one, unfortunately I am not very familiar working with wide characters -- I'm having trouble replicating since I don't have a japanese windows locale. Does saveRDS(iris, "中間データ/あいりす.rds") work?

C++ standard doesn't directly understand wide characters as I understand, and I'm unsure of R's support on windows too.

In the mean time, could you define a new function like this:

qsave2 <- function(file, ...) {
  temp <- getwd()
  setwd(dirname(file))
  qsave(basename(file),...)
  setwd(temp)
}

Thanks for your response.
OK, I understood it is hard. I don't want you to take time to solve a language, not essential problem.

Does saveRDS(iris, "中間データ/あいりす.rds") work?
Yes, it works.

I decided to make/use a custom function like you showd me kindly. Again, qs package is really helpful for me, THANKS FOR YOUR WORK !!

@cuttlefish44 can you provide path as bytes (with charToRaw)? I suppose the encoding on Windows is not UTF-8.

Surprisingly, I can't reproduce the issue.
I haven't changed my environment related R but Rstudio (I've done it update).
This issue perhaps be caused by Rstudio.
I just don't feel satisfied... but maybe my problem has been solved.
If I encounter this problem again, I'll report it in more detail.

Thank you for your kindness.
