Hi,
I've compiled a few minutes ago cvs'd version of mc and want to report
some issue with spaces in prompt commands. I've post it some time ago:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2004-October/msg00022.html
It's is described in second part of that mail, but I will try simple
explanation:
in mc prompt1:~/> mkdir this is test
in mc prompt2:~/> mkdir this\ is\ test
in mc prompt3:~/> cd this is test
in mc prompt4:~/> cd this\ is\ test
In first ex mkdir will create 3 dirs, that's okey.
In second mkdir will create 1 long dir, okey (like in stand-a-lone sh).
In third example cd will change dir, that's fault, because in first mkdir
had 3 parameters, cd cannot cd to 3 dirs (like in stand-a-lone sh).
In fourth mc will show red dialog box, error no such file direcory(2)
I often copy paths with to prompt with (CTRL+x, p) and when your path
has space I've got this error when tryin co cd'in.
