Heh, yeah. However, I don't think those should be of concern here. Slashes or tildes, these would be part of metadata, and not data, which any POSIX-compliant environment/interpreter would never come into direct contact with except between scripts (you are then responsible for maintaining this sanity). You are allowed to go crazy with characters as long as they can be displayed by the system, and as long as you're not talking about file naming (which is real data to the environment). Since manufacturers also use the hyphen in place of the slash, a safer bet would then be 24-96 if you're paranoid. -- GPG/PGP ID: B42DDCAD _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
