	You have wrong locale settings; if you want to use Chinese language with WINE 
(and see Chinese symbols in file names) you should fix your locale. Try this:

wineserver -k
export LANG=zh_SG.utf8
export LC_ALL=zh_SG.utf8
wine notepad

	This should fix your problem. If you want to keep English interface you need 
to change only LC_CTYPE.


	Thank you for using WINE.
