Handling of commandline arguments was changed in Dia 0.97.1 in order to
allow
passing of URI-style filenames. See bug #570592 [1] for the details.
Do you have an example filename to reproduce your problem?

For the time being, I see two possible workarounds for you:

* Use plain ASCII filenames that do not cause problems.
* Pass URI-style filenames

I assume that you're able to open those files from within Dia.
