Here is the list of parameters:

FILTER

List of filters separated by commas.

Here is the list of filters:

FILENAME

Filename is a filter used to replace invalid character for filename with or the character specify by the parameter char. If nodouble is set to true, then they will be no adjacent.

Valid characters are a .. z, A .. Z, 0 .. 9

All others characters are replaced.

The following Latin1 characters are replaced with their equivalent character:

  • éèêë are replaced by e
  • àâäåãá are replaced by a
  • ûüùú are replaced by u
  • ïîìí are replaced by i
  • ç are replaced by c
  • ôòöóõ are replaced by o
  • ñ is replaced by n
  • ÿ is replaced by y
  • æ is replaced by ae

This is also valid for uppercase characters.

FILENAMEINUTF8

This filter is the same as FILENAME but works with utf8 characters.

TEX

This filter is used to escape invalid character in TeX. The following characters are preceded by a \:

  • \
  • $
  • ^
  • &
  • #
  • {
  • }
  • %
  • _
  •  
  • The preceding rule is not applied in utf8.

GLYPHSIN

ISO-8859-1 is the default character set in most browsers.

The first 128 characters of ISO-8859-1 is the original ASCII character-set (the numbers from 0-9, the uppercase and lowercase English alphabet, and some special characters).

The higher part of ISO-8859-1 (codes from 160-255) contains the characters used in Western European countries and some commonly used special characters.

Entities/glyphs are used to implement reserved characters or to express characters that cannot easily be entered with the keyboard.

Glyphsin is used to replace latin1 character over 0x7f to their entities counterpart.

As an example, the character é is replace by the entity é
