Subject: [netatalk-admins] character set mapping

Hello everybody,
I'd be happy if Netatalk could translate filenames from the Mac coding
scheme to ISO-Latin1 (and vice-versa). That would help me a lot in
having my samba and netatalk servers cooperate. (We speak french here
in Tahiti, so we have to deal with those weird accentuated chars ;)
More over, some chars are not allowed on Window$ (like '/') and it
would be good if Netatalk could reject the creation of filenames using
such chars.
I have written a little Perl script which converts all those things
but this is not an appliable solution.
I am far from being a C programming terminator. I found interesting
things in the CAP and samba source code but I am not good enough to
use them to patch Netatalk.
Has anyone already thought of it ?
PS:
My deepest thanks to the Netatalk team as well as Adrian Sun. Keep up
the very good work !
