Can't restore folders with extended characters (éàöè...) #39

Hi Chris,

Thanks a lot for your powerful and useful script.

I have some troubles when trying to restore folders with extended characters, such as "éàèü..."

Here is what I get : 

c:\Python27\Scripts>python restore.py /Sociétés/Cinéma/Diapositives 2016-03-23
Restoring folder: /SociÚtÚs/CinÚma/Diapositives
[404] u"Path '/Soci\xdat\xdas/Cin\xdama/Diapositives' not found"
Note: You must specify the path starting with "/", where "/" is the root
of your dropbox folder. So if your dropbox directory is at "/home/user/dropbox"
and you want to restore "/home/user/dropbox/folder", the ROOTPATH is "/folder".

And - of course - impossible to rename folder to a more "nice & easy" name. I will loose delete historic.

Thanks for your Idea / suggestions. Jan

Try running with python3

Hello, and thank you for the script ! Works like a charm ! @najbo : I had the same problem as you . Here is how I made to address this concern under Python 2.7/Win. Open a command prompt. Type : chcp 1252 Valid. Then i run my command : python.exe restore.py "/Vacances été" 2016-09-13 or python.exe restore.py "/Impôts" 2016-09-13 On the screen, the extended characters are broken, but the restore is ok, and in my Dropbox folder, everything is ok.
