cmd=SELECTFILESB

[igarny]

Hello

I have an unexpected behaviour of an internal command, which I suppose can qualify as a BUG
This fails with latest 11.57, but also 11.51

I created an extended command:

[em_mycmd1]
cmd=SELECTFILESB
param="myfile.docx"

[em_mycmd2]
cmd=SELECTFILESB
param="my file.docx"


the result is that SELECTFILESB can find the file wich lack space in the name and cannot find the other file with space in the filename

This behaviour is related to the fact, that windows always removes the outer doublequotes first.

use doublequotes twice instead:
param=""my file.docx""

When reading from ini files, Windows removes any surrounding double quotes, e.g.
Editor="%COMMANDER_PATH%\AkelPad.exe" "%1"
-> %COMMANDER_PATH%\AkelPad.exe" "%1

Editor=""%COMMANDER_PATH%\AkelPad.exe" "%1""
-> "%COMMANDER_PATH%\AkelPad.exe" "%1"
