It doesn't seem to work when I manually insert characters into the "New Metadata" title. Based on that, I'm guessing it modifies incoming release data, so the user never sees the misc. Unicode characters, thus the file name is saved using ASCII characters also. On that note, is there a similar plugin/script that converts Unicode characters to ASCII equivalents, though only for the file name? -- View this message in context: http://musicbrainz-mailing-lists.2986109.n2.nabble.com/Ellipses-quotation-marks-and-the-miscellaneous-guideline-tp5734079p5742296.html Sent from the Style discussions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ MusicBrainz-style mailing list MusicBrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
