Dierick <o.dierick(a)piezo-forte.be> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |o.dierick(a)piezo-forte.be --- Comment #2 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick(a)piezo-forte.be> --- In case anyone is wondering: The 'forward' slash character is hard-coded in both Windows [1] and Linux kernel [2] to be a directory separator. There is no mean to have 'forward' slashes in filename on those systems, even when escaping. Some Mac OS X apps allow 'forward' slashes in filenames for compatibility with older Mac OS. Those apps use the colon character as directory separator at the application level. However, both characters get swapped in the underlying unix filesystem [3] [4] and since Wine access the filesystem through lower level system calls, it sees the unix filename. Just to say that there can't be any issue with filenames containing slashes as there can't be such filenames on any of those OS.
