Total Commander

When putting filenames on the command line (Ctrl+Enter), TC fails to quote files with commas, apostrophes, etc., so programs interpret a single filename as multiple arguments.

It never hurts to quote, but the behavior should probably mirror cmd.exe's tab completion, which means that any file or directory name with these characters should be quoted (probably unicode, too):

"' !%&(),;[]^`{}~+="

I've reported this before, but perhaps as a feature request. It actually should be categorized as a bug since TC doesn't put the filename on the command line in a usable format.

Thank you for TC, Christian! I hope this gets fixed.

Confirmed. And I also confirm this is an issue because CMD treats something likeas two parameters for script.cmd, making quoting necessary to avoid such behavior.

Exactly, that's the most common problem -- batch files don't always work from tcmd so I have have to manually enter quotes.

Thanks, Dalai!

Could I get an update on why this bug isn't being fixed? Should I re-file the bug with each new version?

Currently only names with spaces in them will be quoted.
