Windows is full of forbidden path characters, and it always will be until they abolish some forty years of backwards compatibility (the CON, allowed characters etc) and expose their quite modern file system for what it is, abolishing fucking drive letters once and for all.
- oefrha 4y agoIn this case these are not forbidden path characters, just non-Latin characters without any special meaning. At some point you should say "fuck Latin-1, this looks like Unicode so we're decoding as Unicode", not "don't use the Latin alphabet? You don't deserve to use a computer". Not being able to use perfectly normal strings like aux or nul as filenames is of course an entirely different category of madness.
