#migrate.py

This program is meant to allow the copying of files from RHEL 7 onto Windows and checks to make sure that no illegal characters are used. It also checks to make sure the paths and filenames are not over the character limit imposed by Windows. It's entirely possible this will work on other distros as well however I am only testing to ensure that it works on RHEL 7. If it works on anything else that is great, but it is entirely unsupported.

Windows limits a single path to 260 characters. The following characters in a filename are illegal: \ / ? : * " > < | Also worth noting is that folders have a max length of 247 characters + <null>.
