I am confused, because a filename is able to contain newlines.

I am pretty shure, I tested the capability of filenames on a Linux (ext2) or Solaris (ufs) filesystem, a long time ago
The outcome was, that you can use 254 different characters, except the '\0' and the '/'.

But I agree, it is an annoyance it should be forbidden. ;)

Greetings,
Alexander
