Access right are OK ( 644 )
the completion does not work, the operating system says file not found
when I try to open it with any program.

when I type the "ls -l" command the file is displayed
with a "?" in place of the French (accentuated ) character

I tried UTF8 or iso8859-1 as MM-CHARSET and fr_FR.ISO8859-1 as LANG
global variables but it still don-t work
