+       entirely safe with all filesystems and all possible characters in
+       a filename, and 100% reversible. (Essentially, uses
+       quoted-printable as the encoding.)
+       
+       * auto-save.el (recover-all-files):
+
+       Use insert-directory rather than calling ls directly -- fixes
+       things under Windows.
+
+       * files.el:
+       * files.el (convert-standard-filename): Substitute FSF's
