Certainly appreciate the help. Here's a typical one when running Mustella: -debug -define=CONFIG::skaha,false -compiler.fonts.managers=flash.fonts.JREFontManager,flash.fonts.AFEFontMana ger,flash.fonts.BatikFontManager,flash.fonts.CFFFontManager -source-path=/Users/pent/apache/flex/mustella/Assets -includes=ExcludeFileLocation -includes=SetShowRTE -includes=SaveBitmapFailures -includes=datagrid_properties_lockedColumnCount_mxml -source-path=/Users/pent/apache/flex/mustella/tests/components/DataGrid/Dat aGrid_SparkSkin/Properties --allow-source-path-overlap=true -includes=SendResultsToRunner -includes=ExitWhenDone -source-path=. -source-path=/Users/pent/apache/flex/mustella/../frameworks/ -source-path=/Users/pent/apache/flex/mustella/as3/src/mustella
Try changing my path, "/Users/pent/apache/" to something like "/Users/pent/apache with spaces/" to get a better example. What happens in the code is that groups of these options may be coming from the environment, so you might find "-debug -define=CONFIG::skaha,false" being added as a single entity. Then code turns what it has at the moment into a String[] and passes that to another function that might add more arguments. If that function does, it will turn the String[] back into a String, add the arguments, then turn it back into String[]. But if you can make something that will convert the args into an acceptable String[] it would be super-helpful.
