Following up on my own question....
Using the --fatfilename switch removes reserved characters from
filenames, but seemingly not from folder names.
(I'd assumed --fatfilename would reduce filename lengths to 8
characters, as under the old FAT16 system, which is why I didn't try it.)
So I can download 'How Tickled am I?', but not into a folder named for
the series, because when GiP tries to create the folder, it produces the
error in line 3939.
I'm guessing that GiP tries to create the folder *before* the reserved
characters are stripped out. So is it possible to perform the strip (so
to speak) before the --subdir switch is acted upon?
Not so. The subdirectory name is also sanitised with --fatfilename, as
you can see from the example Vangelis posted. Without seeing your
command or the full output, it's impossible to know where you went wrong.
