Hey All,
I'm having an issue with spaces in the makeprg command. When setting it
to:
:setlocal mp=C:\Program\ Files\NSIS\makensis.exe
I get an error:
shell returned 1
(1 of 2): 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command
Can someone please let me know how I go about getting this to work?
Thanx!
Chris
The space in the middle of Program Files has been mistaken for a separator.
One set of backslash escapes are taken away when the ":set" statement is
interpreted, so no backslashes are left for later on.
Make sure you have 'shellquote' and 'shellxquote' properly set, then try
:setlocal mp=C:\\PROGRA~1\\NSIS\\makensis.exe
and if it still fails, double the backslashes again.
Best regards,
Tony.

INVENTORY
Four be the things I am wiser to know:
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.
Four be the things I'd been better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt.
Three be the things I shall never attain:
Envy, content, and sufficient champagne.
Three be the things I shall have till I die:
Laughter and hope and a sock in the eye.
