            Bug ID: 499360
           Summary: In the core file menus I would like a setting to
                    remove spaces from filenames when saving them
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: dav1dblunk3tt at hotmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

As far as I know plasma provides a set of native file menus to other
applications.

I find filenames with spaces (and other escapable characters) in them very
irritating.

It would be a nice feature for "saveas" menus to offer a "remove / substitute
spaces" option.  I can't be the only one that mainly works in shells but has to
receive files from other people from a variety of sources that are a pain in
the arse to deal with from the command line because of the antisocial use of
escapable characters.

Like everyone else I've got scripts to remove this chaff from my files but it
occurs to me that it would be nicer for the saveas menus and dialogues to offer
this service.

If this gets adopted I intend to extend it to inconsistent use of camelHump in
code!
