Well, it seems to be stupidly false for you because you didn't made the effort to understand what NTFS namespaces are and how file system drivers and applications use them.
It __IS__ possible to create files with all the characters you mentioned on Windows and it __IS__ possible to read/rename all these files on Windows which were created on Linux. This just __DEPENDS_ON__ how a given Windows application implemented file handling. You're beating a dead horse because the real problem is not on the Linux but on the Windows side. You're arguing introducing a silliness on Linux instead of you would urge Windows developers to fix their broken softwares which they could very easily done by properly prefixing filenames. -- Ubuntu should, in some way, handle Windows rules for file names on a NTFS partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179910 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
