the problem did not came only from OS, but also from the filesystem.

dot at the beginning of the file usually mean that the file is hidden (but 
exist).

on a ext4 partition, only / is not possible in your list.

i don't know about fat : since it's the only filesystem that allow to be read / 
write by the 3 major OS, it's important to test.

i also don't know about what happen on a DVDROM.

experience told me that if you are looking for trouble, you will find them at 
some point.

I just confirmed you can't have those characters in a .dll file

So, besides these characters in Windows, what are other forbiden ones in other 
operational systems we run pd on?

I have Mac Os and it seems only colon (*:*)**is prohibited (as in windows), or 
dot (.) at the beginning of a file.

How about Linux?

cheers
