On: Sublime text started adding a “.s” to new files

In the Save File As dialog of most Windows apps, you can enclose the filename in double-quotes to force it to not add an extension. I wonder if that will help with the issue in macOS?

No, macOS will just put quotes in the name. I just saved file from vscode as "testfile.sql", including the quotes, and wound up with a file named "testfile.sql".s.

That's a great way to drive someone insane.

1. Put some of the forbidden symbols in the file names of, let's say, a bunch of photos.

2. ZIP them

3. Send to someone who ordered those photos with Windows/Linux computer.

4. An hour later tell them that everything works on your computer and you don't see the problem. As a bonus you can film unpacking the zip file and saying: "You see, it works. There's something wrong with your computer".

Wow. Coming from DOS times, supporting double quotes in a filename is wild. I _still_ tend not to use whitespaces in filenames!

[dwaite → baal80spam]

pretty common on UNIXes; you can also have forward slashes in filenames. They just have to be escaped to differentiate.

I don't know of any Unix that allows forward slashes in file names. On macOS you can use : which is displayed as / in Finder, but in exchange you can't put a : in file names...
