A question for the geek Simon about NFC / NFD

[lyapounov]

Hello Simon

first, this post could be elsewhere, feel free to move.

Here is the problem : I transfer all my music from my Macbook to a NAS (Qnap or Syno) using Transmit .

And of course, all accented letters are coded using Apple's horrible 2 characters NFD coding. As a result, files or folders with accented letters don't sync with Amazon cloud.

I was searching for a way to convert automatically from NFD to NFC on the NAS.

It seems iconv("UTF-8-MAC", "UTF-8", $file) should do the job, however, even if phpinfo says the contrary, it seems iconv is not available, neither on qnap nor on synology.

Simon, I know you did it in java, but how did you adress this issue ?

Thx
Best
