Automatic quoting broken for %M

[Flint]

1. Create the following buttonbar button:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cmd /k echo
?N: %N === PN: %P%N === M: %M === TM: %T%M
cmd.exe



-1

2. On both left and right panels place the cursor on a file which has spaces in name, but not in path. Then press the button.
3. The dialog with the current parameter values will show, and the value will look like this:

N: "this is an example.txt" === PN: "c:\Temp\1\this is an example.txt" === M: this is an example.txt === TM: "c:\Temp\1\this is an example.txt"

You can see that %M is the only parameter that did not add quotes around the name, even though it has spaces. All the other added quotes, even %T%M, even though %T did not add any extra spaces of its own.

Tested in TC 10.52 32- and 64-bit.

Ah, thanks. Since "%M" is not searchable, I couldn't make a proper search request…
Pity, I was sure it's a bug that can be fixed. This inconsistency looks really weird and hard to explain in documentation.
