Bug ID: 16520
Summary: Mark invalid file names in red
Classification: Xfce Core
Product: Thunar
Version: unspecified
Hardware: PC (x86_64)
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Medium
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.8.13
Valid Windows file names are not all valid linux file names.
For example Windows tolerates the apostrophe, linux does not.
To help bring awareness of potential issues with software, mark invalid file
names in red.
Better yet, add an option in the renamer to remove invalid characters from
invalid file names.
In fact, I would add a dedicated menu "fix invalid file names" in thunar
itself.
So how do problems manifest.
For example, if one tries to extract a file with an invalid file name nothing
happens....regardless of which software is used.
The layman would have no idea why.
But this fix, the layman would say that certain file names are in red, may
explore the thunar menu and find the menu named fix invalid file names.
Make sense?
