--- Comment #7 from Jonathan Wakely <zilla at kayari.org> ---
This isn't only a problem on Windows, it also applies when ripping files to any
device formatted as FAT32. This is very common, because SD cards and USB sticks
are often formatted as FAT32 for compatibility with devices like car stereo
systems.

If I try to rip a track with a colon or question mark in its name it fails
(after ripping any earlier tracks) because the filename can't be created on the
FAT32 partition. The only solution is rip to a different partition (e.g. an
ext4 drive on the computer) then rename the files then copy them over.

There is already an option to replace blanks with another character. I also
like need to be able to specify that ':' and '?' characters should be replaced.
Ideally it would be fully customisable so that any characters can be replaced,
maybe like the UNIX tr utility (e.g. replace all uppercase with lowercase). But
that is less important than just being able to rip to FAT32 destinations.
