Hi, I am tasked with recovering hundreds or more files created with unknown OSs and have unknown characters in the name, replaced with a '?'. Like file?nam?.??? Please, if you have such a script can you post or email it? Replacing the unknown character with anything, like '-' or '_' using whatever shell, sh, bash or csh. Thanks a lot! Per
