Hi Hans,

I've found some docs regarding platform independent filename handling in
Tcl using "file join" and "file split"  here:
http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TclCmd/file.htm

However I don't know how to add this to the code in image.c. Any ideas?

Ciao

Since the line in question is a line of Tcl, I am sure Tcl has standard
methods of handling file names that will deal with all this...

Allow me to reopen this as a Bug, as 1) I didn't yet get any confirmation 
if the space problem is indeed fixed, but 2) more importantly a proper
solution should not fail on other circumstances like the mentioned
doublequotes.

tested with autobuilds from /auto-build/2007-08-10
Pd-0.40.3-extended-20070810-macosx104-i386.dmg
and Pd-0.39.3-extended-macosx104-i386.dmg.
unfortunately no difference in behaviour, strange.

it still breaks for filenames that contain doublequotes.
