Space character in URL

[osorio]

How do I make WinMerge recognize a space character in a file and folder name, when called from the command line?

Please enclose the path in double quotation marks

"C:\Program Files\WinMerge\WinMergeU.exe" "C:\Program Files\WinMerge\Docs\" "D:\dev\winmerge\Docs\"

@osorio Just FYI, you will find this to be true for almost all Windows CLI applications. Any path with a space requires the path to be enclosed in double-quotes. Because it's true for the Windows CLI, it's also true when writing batch files.

Thanks both!
