Issue with renamer on special characters #1

If you have a folder with "ë" in it, or any other form of characters it will fail to process it. If you rename the folder to say "something silly" and then run it on that folder it will work fine. Even if the files inside that folder contain weird characters again, it will actually rename everything just fine. Just not the starting folder. Same applies if you have the character "-" in there, it will fail the rename too. I presume both are issues with normale 'mv' actions on linux. On linux if you say "mv -something something" it will think -something is a paramter, you can work around this by doing "mv -- -something something" if you could take a look? Thanks, using it happily for some time now, but never got around to looking into these "one of a kind issues"

Update: disregard the part that files in the folders rename correctly, only special characters seems to go fine, but files with a "-" in it won't rename correctly either. (used a sed command to rename all my folders for now, but then the files where still giving a issue)
