Cannot run compiled app if path contains spaces

[Demosthenes Koptsis]

If path of project contains spaces cannot run app

for example

Run /home/user/Documents/DEVELOPMENT/FreeBasic/Getting started with FLTK and FreeBASIC/Projects/001/fltk2......

Please test using gnome-terminal, is it OK?

sorry i cannot use gnome

i use Mate and mate-terminal

but this issue is not terminal centric it is bash issue

if you put double quotes around path it works, for example

mate-terminal -x "/home/user/Documents/DEVELOPMENT/FreeBasic/Getting_started_with_FLTK_and_FreeBASIC/Projects/002 b/Buttons"

I know the double quotes, but……..Try to change -x to -e, everything is different!

I had tested many terminals, like: lxterminal, xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal, mate-terminal, xterm, tilix, every ones had little different “trick” then cause we pass wrong command to terminal…………….

I’ll fixed the issue at next rev.

-e executes the argument of command not the whole command

-x executes the remainder so the whole command

you should use -x

for Debian 13 Mate wtih mate-terminal i confrm that v522 can run app with spaces in path.
