laji,

People here have been pretty patient with you. We are trying to get your concern resolved. However, going on rants saying how a piece of software can be nationally insulting, racist, and discriminatory, and bringing up ancient history to justify your rant will just get you ignored...or banned.

I hope the answer I provided helps you out. If not, then good luck and have a great life.

BTW, English has 26 letters...

1. and 2. points of your reply: both must not be. Simply, no reason, why. Foobar2000 can play a FLAC file and do with it anything, what you want, and send it to any other application (through Tools) -- and does not force me to store my files in "his" place, with language-killer filenames. Files all remains with own, ANY language filename, with own letters -- hungarian too, russian too, greek too...

Total Commander can handle it, too. Windows too. Mp3tag too. All they can do ANYTHING, without killing the language.

What you call "normalisation", really is "abnormalisation". Fortunately, not all languages of the world are so poor, as english. Hungarian, for example, has 46 letters - not 22, as english.

And, AGAIN: please, read, I wrote 3× already: what can be done manually, can be done automatically, to. If Calibre want preserve illogical, nationality-insulting, racist, discriminative filename system, then it can make temporary file for reading.

As I know, Kovid is hindu. Did he forget about english imperialists, who killed people in India? Or does he like it? In any case: I do not like the killing of my language.
