Following up on the Bad Characters we discussed last week, I have done
some testing to determine which characters might be a problem in a
file name.
If you try to copy & paste a string into a file name via the Finder
and the string contains any one of the characters in the character id
range [0 ... 31], the Finder will reject the file name. You just can't
do it.
For characters in the range [127 ... 159], you CAN use them in a file
name. (These are the Bad Characters from last week.)
I've tried to search for Apple documents with information on any
prohibited characters, but found nothing.
Does anyone know where I might find this info?
