Thank you very much for your PR! Unfortunately it fails to build, but there is hope, because more than half of the tests pass, so this suggests that with minor rewrites to the tests it may work fine again. I'll have a look. |

I did not reply before but I did look into this and this involved more than minor rewrites for the remaining tests to pass. I will eventually come back to it when I'll have time, and maybe AI is advanced enough now to actuallu be useful for this kind of bug fixing. |

The encoding has been changed from latin-1 to utf-8 in the b() function, but the _bytes() function on line 66 still uses 'latin-1' encoding. For consistency and to properly support UTF-8 characters (like Cyrillic), this should also be updated to 'utf-8'.
Note that this change also requires updating corresponding decode('latin-1') calls elsewhere in the codebase (e.g., in header_ecc.py line 603 and structural_adaptive_ecc.py line 657) to use decode('utf-8') instead, to ensure proper round-trip encoding/decoding of file paths with non-ASCII characters.

to add support for e.g. Cyrillic characters in file names; untested, let's see if CI/CD passes :)
