Dear AMBER developers,
I've been trying to use cpptraj with some files with a space in the path name. I've been unable to get this to work at all:
> parm /tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop
[parm /tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop]
Error: '/tmp/path': No such file or directory
Error: Could not open topology '/tmp/path'
> parm "/tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop"
[parm "/tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop"]
Error: '/tmp/path': No such file or directory
Error: Could not open topology '/tmp/path'
Error: 'space/acetone.prmtop': No such file or directory
Error: Could not open topology 'space/acetone.prmtop'
> parm /tmp/path\ space/acetone.prmtop
[parm /tmp/path\ space/acetone.prmtop]
Error: Bad syntax (unbalanced parentheses, unmatched quotes.
Error: '/tmp/path\' corresponds to no files.
> parm /tmp/path\\ space/acetone.prmtop
[parm /tmp/path\\ space/acetone.prmtop]
Error: '/tmp/path\': No such file or directory
Error: Could not open topology '/tmp/path\'
> parm "/tmp/path\ space/acetone.prmtop"
[parm "/tmp/path\ space/acetone.prmtop"]
Reading '/tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop' as Amber Topology
Error reading topology file '/tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop'
Error: Could not open topology '/tmp/path space/acetone.prmtop'
The last one looks like it nearly worked, but not quite! Any suggestions? If this can't be done, can I please add this as a feature request?
Regards,
Mark
