Sunflower copied to clipboard

Copy to e.g. Flash drives but renaming into them (short names)
The option COPY should have an option to fix long names on the destination name. Perhaps use 8.3 format.
In the case of folder names with long filenames and already copied file1.ext on it, and then try to copy file2.ext, use the same algorithm to reference the corrected name on the destination folder.
Correct.

You mean like legacy FAT16 support for naming?

Doesn't the underlying Linux filesystem already handle that? I don't see an issue with adding this feature, but I'd like to avoid doing duplicate work if file system already supports it.
I'm afraid not.
The situation is as follows: when copying big amount of files from an NTFS to a FAT, Sunflower thorough OS copies exactly the name, but somehow there is a conflict with the names. May be length, may be special chars accepted by ntfs but not by fat. So, in the case of bulk copy these feature would be quite useful.
Thanks.

Okay, I'll accept this as a feature request. Do note version 0.3 is on feature freeze. So I am assigning this to 0.4.
