Never set it up myself though. But I really hate having to worry about quoting my file variables in scripts. So much, that after a certain complexity, I just give up the script and make the thing in C++. Oh, and if I make a script that doesn't handle file names properly (because it's not required in that specific use case), I make sure to delete it after use, to prevent mistaken use later, which would otherwise cause more headache than just having to rewrite a script. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TarantulaFudge@startrek.website 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) You can just start the path with a quote and it will auto complete with spaces. I spend a lot of time correcting files with spaces replaced now. The spaces are better. I think music is the most annoying, since I like to use tools like EasyTag to extract metadata from filenames.
