Not working with Unicode

[vasyl-shumskyi]

Seems like this great util doesn't like Unicode:

> require('slash')('a\\b\\c')
'a/b/c'
> require('slash')('a\\b\\ц')
'a\\b\\ц'

From the top of the readme:

Forward-slash paths can be used in Windows as long as they're not extended-length paths and don't contain any non-ascii characters.

I have read the link in the README and the link mentioned there. Below are excerpts from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/FileIO/naming-a-file

Use any character in the current code page for a name, including Unicode characters and characters in the extended character set (128–255), except for the following:

The following reserved characters:

• < (less than)
• (greater than)
• : (colon)
• " (double quote)
• / (forward slash)
• \ (backslash)
• | (vertical bar or pipe)
• ? (question mark)
• * (asterisk)
  Integer value zero, sometimes referred to as the ASCII NUL character.

Characters whose integer representations are in the range from 1 through 31, except for >alternate data >streams where these characters are allowed. For more information about file >streams, see File Streams.

Any other character that the target file system does not allow.

There is no need to perform any Unicode normalization on path and file name strings for use by the Windows file I/O API functions because the file system treats path and file names as an opaque sequence of WCHARs. Any normalization that your application requires should be performed with this in mind, external of any calls to related Windows file I/O API functions.

• ...\path\to\français`
• ...\path\to\deutschländisch
• ...\path\to\中国語
• ...\path\to\한국어
• ...\path\to\にほんご
• ...\path\to\♥♥♥♥♥

These are all valid paths in Windows.

Can you tell me if there is a problem with converting Unicode?
