Describe gconf key in the schema (868 bytes, patch)

Description Jeremy Katz 2008-05-28 18:25:55 UTC 
When using rhythmbox to transfer files, there's no way to avoid the different translations which are performed on filenames for things like space to underscore and similar.  This then leads to an inconsistent layout on the player if you've previously just been using rsync or similar.

sound-juicer exposes a "Strip special characters" along these lines.  But at least having it as a gconf key would be nice

It's already available as a gconf key, /apps/rhythmbox/library_strip_chars.

Describe gconf key in the schema

It'd be good then if the key were actually listed in the gconf schema so that people can find it by methods other than reading the source. :-)  Simple patch attached

Thanks, I've committed that with the slight change of making the default false, which should be the same as the current behaviour.
