Directories with spaces

Post by Dave »

When I click on a file in windows exployer that is in a directory that includes a space, Textpad won't open that file. Everywhere there is a space, Text pad pompts to create a file consisting of the string up to that point.

EX.
file located in C:\Program Files\Green Apples\Test Results\Results.TXT
Textpad prompts to create files at
C:\Program Files\Green Apples\Test
and
C:\Program Files\Green Apples\Test Results\Results.TXT

Text pad ignores the space in the first two directories.

Go to configure, Preferences, General, Uncheck "Allow Multiple Files on Command Line".

Or better: change the association to put quotes around the file name.
