The [] characters won't work on some file systems though, right?

As I mentioned earlier on reddit, it's rather more intuitive to show a progress bar on unfinished zip files (or half-copied files for that matter) to inform the users that the zipping/copying progress is not finished.

Possibly looks like this:

application-zip

  1. Temp file names now have a .part suffix
  2. Temp files are now hidden
  3. .part files don't open directly

do you have any examples?

I just looked it up. Popular examples of "problematic" filesystems are FAT12/16/32 not supporting [] and NTFS not supporting *. Here is a more comprehensive list.

Is it easy to write a program that changes the name with high frequency like this? If so that is an interesting idea.

hmm I was concerned for special characters in cli use, but I was not aware of filesystems that would lack support for them, do you have any examples?

@rossbridger It's being considered, but it'd be hard to implement (https://youtu.be/ENBu9_xTrWU?t=877)

The square brackets will 1000% cause problems in any script where you so much as look in the directory where that file exists.

@tjkrobertson Good scripts escape/quote filenames (otherwise spaces would also break them)

@tjkrobertson That's what wildcards are for, they automatically escape weird characters and spaces
