[FIXED] flashgot 1.3.0.5: unicode handling in filenames

Hi:

Unicode handling seems to work OK now. Unicode control characters like U+202A in front of the filename and U+202C, U+200F at the end are stripped from the filenames with version 1.3.0.5. (I never found out why they were there in the first place, anyway.)
But there is a new hitch: The last character of the filename is also stripped.
e.g. "The_Lawmaker.flv" becomes "The_Lawmake.flv".
Not a big deal but I thought you ought to know.
I'm using curl 7.21.7 on Debian Wheezy (testing) for actually fetching from Youtube.

Thank you for the plug-in.

Cheers
Eike

URL where this occurs?

OK, confirmed, FlashGot 1.3.0.6rc1.

The link from here works as a test, Strange characters in File.

flashgot.fgt.done shows this name part to be: "Hilarious_Karate_Ca" (missing the 't').
