    the question mark is a wildcard, so is asterisk. slashes are used in paths. characters you can’t use usually have implications for the OS. otherwise you can name your file pretty much anything.

      Yeah, I think it’s just funny comparing it with the usual situation on Linux, where there’s even less restrictions. I believe you can actually put a newline in a file name, for example, though I’ll need to check and come back later.

      I’d need to rename a massive amount of files if I ever wanted to go back to Windows.

      P.S. yup. Generally, just avoid /, null, and you’re good to go.
