hi,

I am trying to isolate the problem with forbidden characters,
but I am not able to declare this in applescript

I know you can 'overwrite' a forbidden character with the && but I am not able to
compile the variable "forbidden"


--set forbidden to "&&< > : " / \ | *?&&"

You've got to "escape" (means: prefix with a backslash) two characters in forbidden, the backslash and the double-quote, which gives:


set forbidden to "&&< > : \" / \\ | *?&&"
