RKH generally doesn't support files with spaces in too well, which is obviously a pity since rogue files may well contain a space! In some cases we have used a '%' to replace a space, but this obviously could lead to problems for files with a genuine '%' character in them. A solution (generally) would be to treat the lists of filenames as newline delimited, but that would then mean that users would have to enter each file on a separate line in the config file (whereas at present they can use space-separated lists).
In answer to Kevin, as far as I can tell it is not possible to include a filename with a space in it in the ALLOWDEVFILE option.
