Summary	0001861: command-line parse problem with spaces (ardour 2.0.5)
Description	the ardour.sh shellscript is passing the wrong kind of glob - in ardour.sh.in: exec %INSTALL_PREFIX%/%LIBDIR%/ardour2/ardour-%VERSION% $* should be: exec %INSTALL_PREFIX%/%LIBDIR%/ardour2/ardour-%VERSION% "$@" -- When trying to open a session with a filename that contains spaces, the glob $* breaks the argument according to the spaces, so that: ardour2 "session/session 1/" is seen by the ardour executable itself as: ardour2 "session/session" "1/" the correct bash glob is "$@" (with the quotation marks).

paul 2007-09-12 15:32 administrator ~0004355	thanks for alerting me to this. i've had to fix the same problem in other scripts - stupid of me to repeat it for ardour. fixed for 2.0-ongoing and trunk, in not just ardour.sh but also the "run-in-place" scripts like ardev, arval and arprof.
