[CLI] ahk fails if there's a space in the path

[DovieW]

Summary

I made the dumb mistake of putting a space in my username. When trying to use the --ahk option and the KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME is set somewhere in my user directory, I get a popup from AHK saying it can't find the file and the listed path is cut off at the space.

Output of komorebic check

KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: C:/tools/komorebi

Looking for configuration files in C:/tools/komorebi

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\Dovie Weinstock.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

I would have thought that enclosing the config path argument with single quotes here would have handled spaces in paths. Open to ideas from people who know more about how PowerShell and AHK interact to make this more robust.

@LGUG2Z would it work with double quotes?

Apparently the single quotes were supposed to have fixed it but if someone can try this out with double quotes and see if it works we can make the change (I don't have spaces in my username 😅 )

[CtByte]

I don't use AHK, but what if you just move the config to a folder with spaces in its name, then you can test without spaces in the username.

Yeah that triggers it too. I would test it but have never compiled a rust program and would need a second to look into it. Maybe someone can tell me what command to run to compile komorebic.
