Description of problem:
When printing a pdf file with Ghost View, a temporary file seems to be generated
that is based on the name of the original input file.  If the original file name
contained a space, Ghost View does not escape the space properly (though it
seems to try):

tricia> gv NORTH\ CAROLINA.pdf 
Error: /undefinedfilename in (CAROLINA.ps.tmp)
Operand stack:

Execution stack:

Well, I cant attach the pdf file for some reason, but I dont think its really
necessary.  Any pdf file with a space in the name should work.  I verified that
renaming NORTH CAROLINA.pdf to nc.pdf allowed it to be printed.

Comment 2 Dan Williams 2004-05-14 22:08:09 UTC
seems to be fixed
