[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41140] print fails to find ghostscript if it is located in a directory with spaces in the name

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #41140 (project octave):

I think the first question is whether ghostscript can be cross-compiled using
the MXE framework.  Philip alluded to jwe saying this was difficult.  Only if
we can clear this first hurdle do we get to start thinking about how it might
be installed in a directory without spaces.

The ghostscript command, which looks fine in the m-file, disappears into the
C++ drawnow command and eventually into gl2ps.  It might be that someone is
stripping the double quote character.  In this case we could try replacing
spaces with escaped spaces


strrep (x, ' ', '\ ')


I find coding for Windows annoying so, unless compensated, I won't be working
on this issue.
