We'll merge the fix into the 5.04 branch. We're planning another 5.04
release (5.04.4), which has numerous small fixes, sometime "soon", but
exactly when depends on demand. When would you need it for your course?

Hi.
=20
Ok. When can we expect a patch? Will it be incorporated into the next
stable release? The reason for asking is that we're migrating from Hugs
to using GHC(i) in our basic Functional Programming course. And since
all our lab machines are Windows based it is imperative that this works
correctly.
=20
Thanks, Calle

Allright, thanks - this a bug in the GHCi UI frontend. When
given a filename via a :load command or the cmd-line it
processes the filename(s) using Prelude.words, which isn't
the right thing to do.

Hi
=20
Thanks for the answer. It appears as if XP calls ghci via
=20
"p::\ath\to\ghci" "c:\Documents and Settings\foo\...."
=20
i.e. with quotes.=20
=20
Trying to start ghci via cygwin using any of=20
=20
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces/Test.lhs=20
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces\\Test.lhs=20
$ ghci "Test with space/Test.lhs"
$ ghci "Test with space\\Test.lhs"
will give the error: can't find module `Test' (while processing "Test")
=20
Testing=20
=20
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces/Test.lhs=20
$ ghci "Test with space/Test.lhs"
=20
under Linux gives the same error.=20
=20
Hence there seem to be something strange about pathnames containing
spaces under GHCi.
=20
However trying the same thing under GHC works like a charm under both
cygwin and Linux.
=20
Any ideas?

=20
Hi thee,
=20
this is most likely due to the XP shell invoking 'ghci' as follows:
=20
p:\ath\to\ghci c:\Documents and Settings\foo\....
=20
which makes it look as if multiple arguments are given on the
command-line (indeed, that's what the argv vector will contain.)
=20
The registered file assocations for .hs and .lhs takes care of quoting
the filename argument, so I'm not sure this is worth fixing.
=20
--sigbjorn
=20
Enterprising souls may want to have a look at the Registry key
=20
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown\shell\openas\command
=20
and look at how the %1 arg is quoted (or not)....

=20
Hello.
=20
I am having a problem using the Open with ... on haskell-files under
WinXP. The problem is this: create a file on my desktop and then
right-click and try to open it using Open with -> ghci. I get the
following error message:
=20
can't find module `C:\Documents' (while processing "C:\\Documents")
=20
Obviously GHCi incorrectly handles white space in the path. If I run
under Cygwin I can use a script like:
=20
c:\\ghc\\ghc-5.04.2\\bin\\ghci `cygpath -d $1`;
But how do I solve this if I'm not using cygwin?=20
=20
Thanks, Calle
