theres no special portion of code, just the one that handles filenames with
spaces.
the problem is that when i associate a file extension to my application and
i open it, the filename is not quoted before passed as an arguement. i dont
know if its the problem of windows or something, or it was just my fault
when i incorrectly associated the extension.
anyway, this is the code that outputs the second quote i posted in the
original message:
args = None
> if len(sys.argv) > 1:
> args = sys.argv[1:]
>
print args
>
and this is the code that handles the filenames with spaces (as space
generally delimits cmdline params). its not very ellegant, needs a bit of
tuning, but it works (i dont use any kind of -d --something params yet).
[code]
newargs = []
if args:
first = None
for arg in args:
if not first:
first = arg
continue
if os.path.isfile(first):
newargs.append(first)
first = None
continue
if arg.find(":") == -1:
first = " ".join([first, arg])
if first:
newargs.append(first)
[/code]
how can i make the params get quoted before send as arguments?
thanks in advance.
