  19. Hello!
  20.  
  21. On certain systems file names are in the following format: "project*file."
  22. The asterisk and dot must be there and they are treated literally.
  23.  
  24. Now translate seems to think that this "project*file." represents multiple
  25. files and fails.
  26. How do I change this? I tried using \Fcont(\m(badfilename)) without success.
  27. Even \Fliteral(project*file.) failed.
  28.
