Can you use spaces in ADS?

Can ADS understand spaces? It gave me an error when I asked it to go and open something in c://documents and settings ...

No spaces in ADS.
Put your projects and use filenames with no space.
Use underscore instead _______.

Spaces are not allowed in filnames or in file paths.

Allowed:

c:\users\my_projects\project_1.*

Not allowed:

c:\users\my projects\project_1.*

c:\users\my_projects\project 1.*

Seriously, why is this? Do none of their users ever want to put files in their Windows home directory ("C:
Documents and Settings...")?

As per my knowledge ADS origibnation is not through windows.
ADS has problems with special charectors.
Hope this problem will be resolved in next version.

ADS started as a unix program. And it is still a unix program as well as windows. It always looks like a unix port to windows and not a native windows program so a lot of windows features are just not there. No spaces allowed in unix. Since ADS has so much legacy code, I doubt if this will change any time soon.

Unix actually can do spaces (you just have to put a backslash before them) but I can see why it would be complicated to make things cross compatible.

And it's not like the space issue is the only, or even the most annoying quirk that ADS has.

It is still fun when ever you get a chance to ask the Agilent reps if they can handle the space character when ever they are pitching the new versions. It is just an ASCII character after all.
