A machinekit configuration cannot be launched via machinekit-client if there is an underscore in the path to the ini-file.

Reproduction:

• copy a known working configuration to a directory that contains an underscore somewhere in its path
• create a mklauncher configuration (launcher.ini and launcher.py) that launches the newly created configuration
• start mklauncher with the new configuration
• start machinekit-client on the remote host and select to launch the advertised configuration

Observation:

• the client will show that the sever is launching the configuration an after a few seconds it will show "returned with exit code 1"

Expectation:

• It just works

Can you please give an example. I was not able to verify this with "foo_bar" as the directory name.
