Rob I did a few experiments and it appears that the restriction is more to do with RevDev under Linux:
1: Rename a standalone to include a space - runs fine from term window or file browser. Build a standalone with spaces in name - Distribution builder replaces them with underscores. 2: Change a stackfilename(.rev) to eliminate space - opens fine. If I eliminated the Serendipity stack name spaces the stack would open but your error checking for the existence of the original filenames meant it then exited gracefully. 3: Try to save or open a mainstack(.rev) with space in filename in RevDev - produces illegal file name error message. Conclusion: Main problems with spaces are 1: RevDev - includes some precautionary filtering?(other unices?) 2: Difficult to read in console window especially with long paths!! (escaped spaces) And yes this seems to be the case : > Am I correct that this restriction applies only to the mainstack > stack file names? �In other words, it's OK to set a stack's name > or label to "Serendipity Library" so long as the stack resides in > a file named "Serendipity_Library.rev"? �And by extension, spaces > are OK in substack names so long as they are not saved externally > from the mainstack? But I still don't use spaces; but then I still use punched cards. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
