Deprecate `truncateFilename()` and increase filename length limit. #104

Closed yzqzss closed 1 year ago

yzqzss commented 1 year ago

Truncate filename are unnecessary.

  1. Most file systems limit filename to 255 bytes (NTFS is 255 characters).
  2. MediaWiki restricts filename to no longer than 240 bytes.
  3. Python3 on Windows can handle extended-length path automatically.
