I searched and found the file "Python In A Nutshell, 2nd Edition (2006).chm"
and tryied following:
- renaming the file so that it doesn't contains any special character like
spaces or parenthesis, it converts well
- escaping the spaces in name of the file is not enough as also () need to be
escaped (bash: syntax error near unexpected token '(' )
- escaping also ( and ) will give me exacly the situation reported by narnie.
- installing the patch of bug 894193 won't correct this
In the code, we have situatiuons like those:
# the python interpreter handles files with spaces just fine, so we
have to unescape
# our spaces when passing files as arguments to library functions
if os.path.exists(re.sub('\\\\ ', ' ', page_filename)) and
(options['titlefile'] == '' or not options['titlefile'] in url):
And those will only catch escaped spaces, not other escaped special
characters like ( or )
