I looked at both, and I have encoding issues with both.

My locale is fr_FR.utf8
For instance, with HSH:
I have a 'bar' directory, containing a file 'fooé'

run $ "find bar" :: IO [String]
returns me : ["bar", "bar/foo\233"]

and run $ "find bar -name fooé"
returns []

When I provoke an error by running:
run $ "find fooé"
it says :
find: "foo\351": No file or directory

So it is not the same encoding!

Thanks for the HSH link, Magnus.

Concerning FileManip, it seems that I can't perform easily a case-insensitive search (for instance with find, you just use -iname instead of -name). Am I wrong?

Take a look at HSH on hackage.  I've used that many times to inject some
sanity into stuff that I used to do with bash.
