there used to be a hack in Hg to safely store files with spaces (and other potentially unsafe characters) in names, called `fncache repository format'. http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/fncacheRepoFormat seems you can toggle it on/off in config. -- dexen deVries [[[↓][→]]] For example, if the first thing in the file is: <?kzy irefvba="1.0" rapbqvat="ebg13"?> an XML parser will recognize that the document is stored in the traditional ROT13 encoding.
