Support for spaces in file names #109

Closed bocchino closed 11 months ago

bocchino commented 2 years ago

Right now our official position is that we don't support spaces in file names, because (a) they create issues for shell scripts and (b) we haven't tested with file names with spaces. But maybe we should support this, if it isn't too hard. At a minimum it will require some more testing. For example, we should make sure that FPP installation works, and the unit tests run, if the repo lives in a path containing a space.

Also what about other tricky characters, such as ' and "? Where do we draw the line?

I'm going to close this issue, as there doesn't seem to be a pressing need to address it. Most users interact with FPP through the Python installation anyway.
