[cvsnt] Re: loginfo bug ?

[Bo Berglund]

Possibly, but I had my problem in the very first item after the regulat expression:
ALL C:\Program Files\CVSMailer\CVSmailer.exe blah blah blah
results in CVSNT trying to execute
C:\Program
with the first argument
Files\CVSMailer\CVSmailer.exe

Putting quotes around the program name did not help at all, so I forced the setup
to install to C:\Programs\CVSMailer\CVSMailer.exe instead (no spaces in path).
Then it started working again.

AFAICT, the only change CVSNT makes to the script line is to replace %{sVv} with
an argument containing the specified data. The argument is quoted if necessary.

Again AFAICT, CVSNT seems to leave spaces on the script line intact. And when it
expands %{sVv,}it escapes any spaces in folder or file names by preceding them
with a backslash.
