3.Using Cygwin, Special filenames, Invalid filenames

[Masaki_Takasu <takasu_masaki at soarsystem dot co dot jp>]

Hello;

Cygwin1.7.7 has a problem that incorrect to interpret the files created by Macintosh.

Steps
(1) Create a '"' in name of a file using Macintosh.(Mac OS X 10.6.6)
(2) To transfer file(created at step (1)) to Windows from Macintosh by SMB protocol.
(3) '"' in name of a file is converted to Unicode 0xF020 according to SMB protocol.
(4) To verify the file transferred to Windows using Cygwin "ls"command. 
(5) Cygwin interprets Unicode 0xF020 as ' '(Spaces) in name of a file.

  ※ Character conversion table mapping code in SMB protocol

     Macintosh ANSI  Unicode 
     -------------------------------- 
     0x01-0x1F       0xF001-0xF01F 
     "               0xF020 
     *               0xF021 
     /               0xF022 
     <               0xF023 
     >               0xF024 
     ?               0xF025 
     \               0xF026 
     |               0xF027

Thanks.
