[Issue]: spaces in the installation path of nvm lead to errors using it #1104

Closed PurpleMagick closed 4 months ago

PurpleMagick commented 7 months ago

What happened?

Attempting to change the node versions with nvm use there is an error because of the space in the installation directory.

Note that nvm install does work without producing errors. Only nvm use shows an issue.

What did you expect to happen?

Switching the used version of Node should work even if there are spaces in the path. I found issue #41 which is closed (and issue #168 which is a duplicate of it) which claims this was addressed. Te common issues page says spaces in path names should work as of 1.1.8
