Hi John,
First, the unix and linux filesystem allows the use of any nonzero character in
its filesystem filenames
Well, even it's not the central point of the discussion let make this
assertion more correct. It depends on file system. E.g. JFS
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFS_%28file_system%29) abides to this
rule while very popular ext4 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4) does
not. In addition to NUL character, the latter forbids '/' as well.
Best,
Serguei.
