Replace colon `:` with something else maybe ` - `

I ripped a CD that had track names with colons in them, as in "Chapter 4: blah" and this resulted in filenames with colons. That's a big problem for Linux directory stuff and caused errors when trying to copy the files. The filename output should reject colons and probably should replace them with dashes (maybe even m-dashes?)

It's not exactly what you asked for, but there is a configuration option Always use FAT compatible output file names on the Advanced tab of the configuration dialog, which replaces special characters with a _.

@dfaust Thanks, that's something, although overkill

That's in fact not true, the most commonly used EXT filesystem supports colons in filename, the rest is how to escape the specialized interpretation in shell, etc.
