After more testing of your latest patchs (lkarmafs-0.1.7-escape3.patch and lkarmafs-0.1.7-escape3.patch + lkarmafs-0.1.7-rep.patch), here are my conclussions: - I think the escape3.patch functionality of the -E option (escape-editing of the originals) is fine. So, unless other users complain, I think we can keep *only* your escape path editing (i.e., forget about my wish of retaining both tr- and escape-editing). - The default editing (i.e., no -E option) of the escape3.patch version is not good: tunes having a '/' in their title are not shown and the same happens for tunes having one or more ".". Examples: title="A / B" or title="X.Y". - The default editing (i.e., no -E option) of the escape3+rep.patch version is fine, except that I think most people would prefer NOT to substitute " " with "_" by default. I'd also use another symbol for the "/"; for instance '+', '%', '|' or, if possible, '\' -- instead of '#'. - The editing option of the rep.patch version is broken: for instance, using `-E "/." "+Ç"' yields `** Libkarma error: gethostbyname() failed' Regards, EV. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
