Any progress with rclone?

Does anyone have a full list of the special characters? I noticed that French accented filenames are not handled correctly.

Kobo uses a VFAT filesystem, which does not like most of the special characters, hence we need to tell rclone to convert them. rclone isn't too smart about this unfortunately, thinking this is a normal Linux setup.

Not familiar with this, but there should definitely be a built-in way to tell this thing "hey, I'm on vfat, sanitize filenames, plz!" without having to jump through hoops like those.

EDIT: What you're describing is completely unrelated, though, it's probably a codepage issue. I'm assuming rclone expects UTF-8 (as it should), while your windows stuff is (likely) in cp852...
