File /oname with whitespaces

mynab · 27th January 2004, 08:54

Hello,

I am trying to use the /oname flag of the File command like:

File /oname="word1 word2.ext" file.ext

But I get an error. As soon as I replace the whitespace with an underscore it works OK. I think this should be possible. Can someone give a hint?

Regards,

Try this code

code:
File "/oname=word1 word2.ext" file.ext

Thanks! It works fine. Not very natural though... You would naturally expect to only surround the filename with quotes and not the whole flag. But anyway!

Thanks again
mynab
