fanzhuyi...@gmail.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |fanzhuyi...@gmail.com Status|REPORTED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |NOT A BUG --- Comment #12 from fanzhuyi...@gmail.com --- I was able to reproduce the behavior the reporter mentioned (the `rename` program they used is called `perl-rename` on many distros). Examining the issue further, I noticed that the filename passed to the script is the full path, i.e., something like `/home/user/ a truly <horrible>|"awful" "$'\n'"name with a newline and *globs*, and even a 'single' quote or two?! .txt`. Hence, the white space is no longer at the beginning at the string, and will no longer be removed by the script the reporter provided. As passing in the full path is intended behavior, I am closing this report. As an alternative, the reporter could consider using another script that can handle taking in full paths to files, and intelligently removing spaces in front. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
