contain spaces.
Is there any likelihood of this 'defect' being fixed in any imminent new
release?
I've just had a look around at a couple of articles about renaming the
folder, and the risk of losing everything outweighs the potential benefit
of using macports.
Also as no other piece of software that I am using or have used in the
past has crashed due to my use of a space on either my SSD or HD drive,
I'd hope that macport gurus might be able to fix this?
Thanks
