Directory Name con not allowed on Windows

Open steveway opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, The Interspeech21 model contains a directory called "con". This is not allowed on Windows operating systems. So it is not possible to fully extract this and use this model. Here is a statement directly from the Microsoft docs:

Do not use the following reserved names for the name of a file: CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9. Also avoid these names followed immediately by an extension; for example, NUL.txt is not recommended. Microsoft Documentation

Hi, thanks for letting me know this. "con" is a language id here https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/con I put all relevant files for each language under its iso id But I did not know about this naming issue in Windows. Very interesting, I will think about it, maybe I should use a different naming style for each lang Thanks!
