Problem with windows file names encoding #260

Hello,

I tried to save a table named "enquête" into a file with the same name. : write.fst(enquête,"Z:/enquête.fst") It seems that the french character "ê" is translated to UTF8 before creating the file and as a result the saved file gets the the ugly name "enquête.fst". This phenomenon doesn't apear when saving RDS, FEATHER, CSV, DBF files... and is abit problematic if the next step in the program is to try to do something on the file by its supposed name, like getting its size...

Best regards Jean-Luc
