A filename that contains the "$" character gets a quicklook of:
"cat {path/filename without $ and next character}: No such file or directory"
For instance:
filename:RESULTS$20090405.xml results in
"cat /Users/me/Desktop/RESULTS0090405.xml: No such file or directory"
removing the QLColorCode bundle from the quicklook library folder prevents
the error message from occurring.
[Desktop]$ qlmanage -p _RESULTS\$20090405.php 2>&1 | grep "Generator used"
2009-04-06 10:08:41.885 qlmanage[79969:5e03] [QL] Previewing
/Users/me/Desktop/RESULTS$20090405.xml. Content type UTI: public.xml.
Generator used: <QLGenerator /Library/QuickLook/QLColorCode.qlgenerator>
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Find file that QLColorCode is used to generate quicklook. Confirm
quicklook properly generated.
2. Rename file to include "$" before .extension. For example, results.xml
-> re$sults.xml. Quicklook fails to generate.
3.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Quicklook (only) contains
"cat {path/filename without $ and next character}: No such file or directory"
instead of color-syntaxed preview.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.1.0 on 10.5.6
Please provide any additional information below.
Looks like spaces,?s,!,@,*,& etc are already escaped -- they wok properly.
