Alright I got how to make ``load "test space.py"`` work for the notebook too. The problem is in:
/home/rado/sage-3.4/devel/sage/sage/server/notebook/worksheet.py line 3558: for filename in L.split(): the python split function splits "test space.py" to '"test' and 'space.py"'. I googled for a bit and found here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/79968/split-a-string-by-spaces-preserving-quoted-substrings-in-python that there is part of the python standard library for splitting shell. The fix is simple, just use import shlex for filename in shlex.split(L): I tried it at it works. I am completely new to software development, so don't know how to submit a patch (if this is patch-worthy). But at least now it is on the forum so stubborn people with spaces in their folder names can google this fix:) Rado On Apr 24, 10:23 pm, Nick Alexander <ncalexan...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I can fix 2) at $SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage/sage/misc/interpreter.py > > but actually I need a fix for 1) since I keep my files with folders > > with spaces.
