Cannot open zip file including colon ':' in the filename

[arnikz]

Hi,

I ran into an issue with a bunch of FASTQC files which include colon: in their filenames. Renaming the files is not an option. While this char is not allowed in Windows filenames, Linux allows any character other than nul and /. See the session using example FASTQC reports / zip files (obtained from test[:err].fastq.bz2 input files):

• test_fastqc.zip :heavy_check_mark:
• test:err_fastqc.zip :x:
