RE: [P&C] utf8-char in Zip-rel-path

Hi Marcos,

>>Unless it's broken (?), I would prefer to leave it as is.
I think that P&C should either change the grammar (as suggested in my email) or specify that the zip-rel-path operates on characters.
The first would be well adjusted to Zip filename encoding in UTF-8 as a kind of natural match, whereas the latter could be clearer wrt the characters that can be used in the path.

Anyway, I think some clarification - e.g. on of the above - is required.

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Marcin

Unless it's broken (?), I would prefer to leave it as is.
