character coding problems

Dear Sirs,
I have downloaded your evaluation copy of Salamander 2.51, but I have hit a serious problem.
I have XP Professional Greek (SP3) installed and as I also speak German I do have some files with German names including Umlaute. While I do not have any Problems in the standard Microsoft Explorer, Altap not only shows those files wrong (e.g. u umlaut is shown as a simple u, or the sharp s is shown as a question mark) it can also not handle those filenames for copying a file or entering a directory with special German Characters. Strangely it is possible to rename such a file/directory, and when you change the problematic u umlaut with a standard u the file is accessible again. Is it possible that you are working on this problem? should I wait for the new 2.52 version?
Btw, I saw the same problem with French accented filenames.
Greetings from Greece
PS: should I post some screenshots?
