Notes

Trims all bad, unsecure characters from a string that is being used for a directory. For example, if you are opening a directory or file and directory, you will want only characters like A-Z, plus dots, slashes, and brackets, but not things like pipe characters and quotations. This function is not meant for UTF8 strings.

See also the TrimBadFile (previously known as TrimBadChars_file) functions. In future versions of Powtils, CheckBadFile and CheckBadDir functions will be available.
