Description:
------------
ex.
test(){2345} valid filename
test([90?\+-_]){2345} valid filename

Can you add the function to check the filename which is valid for the Unix system?
Let me know on the same id whatever your reply (i.e. yes / no).

I'm not sure if this can practically be implemented in PHP, I would argue that it is up to the PHP developer to know the OS conversions on the matter.

Tho, I know you specifically stated Unix, the following article is for Windows and may be of help to future readers, and I'm sure there is a similar one for Unix style systems:

If you want to contribute to PHP, you can find many of the resources at php.net, wiki.php.net and the README files in the root of php-src when downloading the source of PHP directly.

Thanks
