My boss just sent me mail that said, and I quote:

   Fossil sucks and is actually not compatible with Windows

I'm pretty sure I've seen people here who use it no Windows, and
there's a Windows distribution, which makes me think he's wrong.

His problem is that he has lots of spaces in his directory and file
names, and we (Windows is a third-line gaming platform for me, but I
try...) couldn't figure out how to get such passed to fossil as file
names, instead of broken up by command.com or whatever does that job
these days. Quoting again:

    If I try adding parentheses or quotes then the ignorant
    application bombs out.

So, anyone got advice on this? Maybe a GUI that works with the fossil
Windows binary from fossil.org?

        Thanks,
        <mike
