[Evolution] One last suggestion on including the / in filenames



Macs let you put a slash in a filename.  They don't, however, let you
put a colon : in a filename
because that's their directory separator.
When writing a filename, if a user types : it shows up as an &emdash; or
a - or something.
We can do that with evolution as well-- just substitute a similar
character in certain circumstances.
Users try once or twice, and then say hell with it.  no need for icky
dialogs or weird restrictions.

and now, on to more important issues, like getting the thing to
work.......
