Fwd: MusicXml2Ly - problem with spaces in paths and filenames

[Valentin Villenave]

Greetings Bug Squad,

here's a report that was sent to me privately (by accident I think).
Could you have a look?

Here's the discussion he's referring to:

Cheers!

I realize this is an old posting, but I have had the same problem with
a new installation of Lilypond. The problem is in the windows registry
setting for invoking python scripts.

In my installation, the key
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Python\shell\open\command had the value

"C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\python.exe" "%1" %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

which should be changed to have quotes around each command line
argument, like this:

"C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\python.exe" "%1" "%2" "%3" "%4"
"%5" "%6" "%7" "%8" "%9"

The same string appears in the key
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\py_auto_file\shell\open\command but
changing the quotes there didn't seem to do anything for running
musicxml2ly.

Thanks for the great program.
