Thanks for the advice. However, I had already tried the single quote thing earlier, but I dismissed it, because AFAIK single quotes are not handled as string delimiters in the Windows shell, and:
$ fossil set ignore-glob *.xxx > $ fossil set ignore-glob > ignore-glob (local) *.xxx But: $ fossil set ignore-glob '*.css' > $ fossil set ignore-glob > ignore-glob (local) '*.css' The single quotes become part of the property value. (Not sure if this stops fossil from processing it correctly though.) Be that as it may, both the fossil ui thing and the single quote thing can IMO only be workarounds, not the real deal; the latter b/c numerous other scripts (of mine, but I'd assume of other people too) depend on a "normal" argument passing.
