Re: [Evolution] Drag and drop from nautilus broke?



Sounds like a bug, but it could be at either end of the dnd process.

Although '#' is used as the shell comment, so you can't type the
filename in a shell command line directly without escaping it, there is
nothing in the filesystem preventing you using it (emacs uses #'s in
backup files).

Hi,

Evo 1.0.5, Rh7.1, nautilus 1.0.6, all updates done with red carpet.

Drag and drop of files to attach from nautilus to evolution compose
window seems to not work if there's a # sign in the file name. Doesn't
work from gmc either. The error from gmc says the file does not exist
and the name is truncated before the #.

Drag and drop from gmc to nautilus works OK with these files. Doesn't
work from nautilus to gmc. Works OK within nautilus or between 2
nautilus windows.

Known bug? Should I quit using # signs in file names?

Thanks,
John
