  • DDFileLister: Sanitize file descriptions to remove control characters

    Okay, that is true. It's a little strange that you call String.replace() repeatedly rather than using a regexp that replaces all occurrences of either problematic character.

    In case, I'm fine to approve for merge.

    I think I should update this to remove other problematic characters too. At the time I wrote this, I had added a file to a file directory I have that has these two problematic characters, but I suppose there are more that could pose issues.
