Escape slashes from file path

[Anik Hasibul]

```
{
"name":"foo/bar.mp3",
"url":"https://foobar.com/bar.mp3"
}
```

I wanna save the song after fetching the url.

When I am going to save the file to the `name` value it says `open: foo/bar.mp3 no such....`, because the directory `foo` doesn't exist.

I wanna save it in the current directory.
Any way to escape it?

Please don't suggest `url.PathEscape`, it encodes unicode char (my language is Bangla).

Use filepath.Base to strip the directory part.

I need the whole name :( the slash isn't separating the directory. It's "artist/track.mp3"

strings.Replace(fn, "/", "-", -1) ?

You can use other transcodings (quopri, base64) but those needs decoding, too.

Yes! Just tried.

Thanks for giving me the idea about kicking the slashes from file name.
