strip all special characters from filenames (1.33 KB, patch)

Description Andy Hanton 2004-05-16 04:51:31 UTC
I don't want my filenames to have any spaces or special characters in them. 
When I use the strip special characters option, sound juicer leaves the spaces
from the filename pattern in the final file name.  I want my filename to be
01_-_Track_Name.ogg not '01 - Track_Name.ogg'.  The list of shell metacharacters
that sound-juicer removes is also incomplete.  It leaves out ['"$()`|>{}].  The
single quote and parenthesis are commonly included in song titles.  The rest
should probably be added for completeness.

I've added the extra shell characters, but am not sure about the sanitize_path
patch.  A better solution may be to simply add patterns which don't have spaces in.

Ross, this seems to be a duplicate of closed bug #357111 (or vice versa).
