** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: ntfs-3g
  
  Example: you create a file called "Why do I keep couting?.flac" on an
  NTFS partition. Ok, but when you open Windows, then you get problems
  with this "?". When on a NTFS partition, Ubuntu should warn (not deny)
  about naming files a way Windows doesn't allow. It also should have a
  tool for scanning NTFS partitions and then erase/replace the invalid
  file names.
+ 
+ @added: at least that analyzing tool could be implemented, allowing
+ users that get into this problem to scan and replace all undesirable
+ chars. It could be built into suitable place like an ntfs-config option
+ or NTFS-volume properties tab) .

** Tags added: filename ntfs windows

** Also affects: ntfs-config (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: ubuntu
Sourcepackagename: ntfs-3g => None
