Problem with unicode not being used for file and directory dialogs. #36

Hi,

I'm the d-apt maintainer. I noticed that when running the example, the open file and Directory dialogs do not properly show the file/folder names if they include some accent or another diacritical mark. Is TkD dialogs non compatible with UTF-8?

Here attach you some captures from Debian.

It seams that insertion of _tk.eval("encoding system utf-8"); into constructor of class TkdApplication could help. At least with Linux it worked for me. Regards, Karl
