Weird German special characters on OSX

  • Hi there, loving your plugin! I encountered a strange behaviour with german Umlauts on my machine though, I posted the fix over at GitHub:

    https://github.com/webvitalii/filenames-to-latin/issues/7

    How to reproduce my Problem:

    – Create a file named ?.jpg for example
    – Safe it to your computer
    – “Edit” the filename in Finder and paste it to Sublime Text (in my case)
    –>
    The ? *is not* the same letter as if I had typed it directly in Sublime Text. If I move the caret behind the letter and press backspace, first the two dots disappear, so the ? becomes a normal O. On a second press on backspace, the O itself gets deleted.

    Thank you for your feedback.
    Can you describe what does your code doing and how it is fixing the issue?

    $friendly_filename = preg_replace('/[^A-Za-z0-9\-.]/', '', $friendly_filename);
