Special characters in filenames
« on: November 17, 2010, 08:18:15 pm »
1.4 had no problem with including the characters '(' and '^' in my filenames.
1.5 seems to not accept them into the database.  Is there any way to change this?

Thanks.
Considering my app is meant for third-world computing, I should adjust and only use _ and -, as advised.
