I agree, there are serious Unicode problems in pre-beta -- I have 
already written to Tuviah about it, and will share the info with the 
list if he gets back to me.

Also, I've discovered that pre-beta wouldn't open a stack in OS X  if 
it's contained within a folder that has Cyrillic characters in its 
name.  Once I moved the stacks to the desktop, I could open them 
without any problems.  Interestingly enough, 1.1.1 didn't care if the 
folder names were non-English.
