Hi there,

thanks for the report on an issue I thought had been properly resolved,

but alas not. The updated Windows installer that was published last Monday

does include a fix for the issue. I'm guessing you spotted that, but I didn't

want to leave your report un-replied to in the e-mail archives.

Subject: GHC-6.0: Open with ... bug (again!)

Hi.

The problem with open files contained in directories whose name contain white space is still present under Windows (Win XP Pro at least). It apparently works under Linux but not under windows.

Opening a file in a directory called "Test dir" via one of

$ ghci Test\ dir/Test.lhs

$ ghci "Test dir/Test.lhs"

$ ghci Test\ dir\\Test.lhs

$ ghci "Test\ dir\\Test.lhs"

gives the error

Test\:
Can't find module `Test\'
(use -v to see a list of the files searched for)

The output from running ghci with the -v flag is attached to this mail. As usual ghc works perfectly.

Please, please, please fix this bug (so that I can build a CVS version) as we need it in our functional programming course.

Thanks, Calle
