file names in 'do as applescript'

[ron barber]

Greetings from Japan

I am using the following to save files from my application:

put "untitled.txt" into fname
 get "choose file name with prompt "&quote& " "&quote&" default
name"&&quote&fname&quote
do it as applescript


When the save file dialog is presented some users are, naturally,
using Japanese characters to name the files but when the file is saved
the name is always ????. Can I modify my applescript to take the
Japanese or is this a limitation with LIvecode?


Thanks
Ron
