Error opening Input File #116

When A File Name contains '꞉' Odiff just throws:
odiff: internal error, uncaught exception:
Failure("error opening input file")

I don't know whether it could be OS specific, but it happened to me on Windows 10

again windows issue noooooooo
I think with the latest release I checked the windows build + we have CI so please provide a more valuable reproduction. I tent to believe that it might be some of your local issues

I doubt it's a local issue. No other program has this issue and the behaviour is consistent. If I try to compare a file with a colon character (In my case from a timestamp with this format: "(HH:mm:ss)"), it throws the error from above. When I rename the very same file and just remove these two colons, it works without any issues

Oh so it's just about the colons in the file name. Okay this is better and less serious. I understand now. Thanks

Oh, were you thinking I meant the ones from drive letters? If so, no these don't seem to make any issues. Just the file names themselves
