folder filter - folder name with space(s)

Post by slam » Tue Dec 02, 2008 4:30 pm

This is a great utility, but I have run across one problem.

Is there a way to filter out a folder that had a space in the name?

Sorry if the answer is here somewhere. I looked, but did not find it.

Thanks

Oops!

Sorry, but no. I split the list of folders by whitespace into individual folder names.
I didn't even think to check for quotes or backslash-style escapes.

I'll log this.

Hi!

Sorry to dig up an old thread, I just wanted to ask when we can expect this missing feature? Having an ability to filter sub-folders with spaces in the name is important to me, because most of my projects has folders like 'Debug Unicode' or 'Release Unicode'. I suggest using a semicolon as a folder name separator.

DiffMerge is a really good software, I hope it won't be a problem for you to implement this feature.

Regards,
Bartosz

I'm going to gear up to make an update release some time this summer
and try to fix things like this. I don't have any specifics yet, but that is
the general idea.
