I'm not sure this is still an issue. A "/" in the name of the file is interpreted as trying to save in a subfolder of the current location. If I try to do this now in GEdit, I get an error message saying the subfolder can't be shown because it does not exist. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393158 Title: There is no warning message when inserting a forbidden symbol (/) in filename To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/393158/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Sebastien Bacher: As Mac_v already said, the problem is that not everybody knows that / marks a subdirectory. Actually, an average user isn't even supposed to know that he is allowed to type the entire filepath in a box called "Name" . I myself wasn't aware of it for a long time, so I think that an informative warning about what you can and what you cannot put in there would be precious. -- There is no warning message when inserting a forbidden symbol (/) in filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393158 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Sebastien Bacher: Just a warning can be prompted when the folder doesnt exist. Or that filenames should have "/" When the average user doesnt get a feedback , they tend to get confused.
