Rename with correct characters

[tamtamstudio]

Hi all,

I'm using runshellscript to rename ID3 Tags using lame, in some mp3 files.

every time i've got some non-standard characters (eg. à or a simple '), it result a wrong character.

have you got a suggest to prevent this behavior (custom function or else)?

thank you in advance,

best

Use Filter(). I'm not sure what all the permissible characters are, but this should get you started:

Let([

alpha= "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" ;

alpha = alpha & Upper ( alpha ) ;

digits = "1234567890" ;

chars = "_|" ;

keep = alpha & digits & chars ;

result = Filter ( text ; keep )

];

result

)

Thank you David,

it's a workaround to solve problem. (e.g. a` instead à or else)

btw in run shellscript function, using eyeD3 (pyton lib) remain problem i can't pass to shell some characters generally included in latin, (in terminal it works perfect, of course)

thank you anyway

best

Corrado
