Cyrillic text in filenames?

I can't find any information about this in the specification:

nex://nightfall.city/nex/info/specification.txt

When trying to URL-encode, the Lagrange browser does not decode these names in listing view. There is also no Alt text option, as implemented in Gemtext.

If the Nex protocol is ASCII-oriented, it should be mentioned somewhere in the specification.

I don't recall if I ever verified whether Lagrange behaves in a sane way when it comes to Nex and URI percent-encoding... It's very possible that it doesn't work as intended (encode after receiving Nex index, decode when sending Nex request).

I recently checked, and it seems that Lagrange is working well. However, there is a server-side issue (Yseterweb) where I should store the filenames URL-encoded, lol.
