Subject: Cannot compile functions if working directory contains a space
If the name of the working directory contains a space
then compile fails. First noticed with xmaxima icon
on desktop, when the default directory is
C:\Documents and Settings\user.name\Desktop\
With "Start in:" set to "C:\J J"
(C1) f(x):=x+2;
(D1) f(x) := x + 2
(C2) compile(f);
Error: cannot be coerced to a pathname.
Fast links are on: do (si::use-fast-links nil) for debugging
Error signalled by UNLESS.
Broken at PROBE-FILE. Type :H for Help.
