    <thetext>Yocto-bsp is based on an underlying templating mechanism that uses special characters for text replacement. e.g. {{=}}

It&apos;s convenient to be able to use those characters in file and directory names as well.  Using those characters in filenames have raised many eyebrows for some reason, although they&apos;re perfectly legal.

They actually cause problems though when people try to look at them on other popular but less-capable &apos;operating systems&apos; and for certain aspects of the project that&apos;s become an important thing to want to do.

So, remove those characters from file and directory names and replace them with sentinals using more common characters.</thetext>
