# This script checks if any file or directory name has characters in the range 0x80 trough 0x9f #
# in it. #
# Files with name containing these characters cannot be opened in a Linux mounting, so they #
# cannot be backuped by rdiff-backup. #
# IMPORTANT: It must be run on the Windows machine #
# #
# A error log is generated in a file named like this: 2007-28-07_10-51-18_errors.txt #
# Inside the error log file there are the filenames with wrong characters. #
# If the name is of a directory it is terminated by a os directory separator ("\" on Windows). #
# #
# I've wrote this script in portuguese (my native language) and translated the variables and #
# coments to english, so it could be (more) buggy (than the original version). #
# This script worked fine to me on a Windows 2000 Server. #
# Maybe it'll work for you too. #
