/ has never been a reserved character in HFS+.

/ and : are reserved characters on the HFS+ file system, just like "/\*?<>|: are on NTFS. You really should not be creating files with those characters in the name.

Hello,

how do I programatically create a NSString holding a path with a file name that contains a "/" character?

/Users/monk/Desktop/My file with / in it.txt

where "My file with / in it.txt" is the name of the file.
