[Thunar-dev] Copy/move file with "<" in it's name

Dear list,

I have trouble copying a file with a 'less than' sign in it... Also, the 
error message produced is a bit confusing and non-descriptive to the 
'normal' user:

--

Failed to copy "/home/harold/Type O Negative/Life Is Killing Me/03 - 
Less Than Zero (<0).mp3" to 
"/home/harold/Netwerk/WORKGROUP/SERVER/data/mp3/harold/Type O 
Negative/Life Is Killing Me/03 - Less Than Zero (<0).mp3".

Failed to open 
"/home/harold/Netwerk/WORKGROUP/SERVER/data/mp3/harold/Type O 
Negative/Life Is Killing Me/03 - Less Than Zero (<0).mp3" for writing 
(Invalid argument).

Do you want to skip it?

--

Thunar does allow me to add 'lesser than' and 'greater than' through the 
rename process...


Cheers!
