XnViewMP 0.5 not opening files with space characters in path

Post by aleyer »

Hi!
I downloaded and installed the deb package for my Linux Mint system.
When I try to open a file via terminal like

Code: Select all

xnview "/home/aleyer/Pictures/label.png"
It opens fine.
If the path to file contains a space character (like this)

Code: Select all

xnview "/home/aleyer/Pictures/label 2.png"
it doesn't load anything and stops with an empty screen. If a file named "/home/aleyer/Pictures/label" exists it loads it instead.
The same issue is when I open files via a click in Nautilus. Some files load, some not. Seems to be exclusively XnVIewMP bug.
