Underscores now with Batch Add File
« on: December 31, 2005, 12:19:06 am »

I noticed that since I upgraded from 1.3x to 1.42 that all my file names show a underscore in place of a space with using Batch Add File

Ex  under 1.3x   the file would appear as Death and he Maiden 1).jpg
Now under 1.4x the file appears as Death_and_the_Maiden_(1).jpg

Confusing where trying to use Batch Add File for new images.

Why are spaces considered forbidden.

Spaces are considered forbidden characters:  http://communication.ucsd.edu/bjones/Unix.docs/unix_filenames.html

Just because an OS allows you to put spaces in your filenames doesn't make it correct.

As someone who has been using Unix since 1978; Unix has no problem with spaces in filenames per se.  Shells have quoting conventions to allow a filename with a space to be specified.

If you wanted to name a file "cat food" no problem, just put quotes around it so that it knows it's one file named "cat food" and not a file named "cat" and another file named "food".

Lunix can cope with spaces in folder names, but the www has not been designed with spaces in folder/file names in mind. Everything that has been added to the original www specifications causes issues. It's better to avoid them.
