Subject: find-dired does not work properly for displaying files that contains backslashes in them.
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2007 08:55:53 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9caafe030706141755h6b227b68hf4184297d81a7502@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
On Linux
creates a file named "foo\bar", use find-dired to look for it, when
its displayed on screen, use "Enter" key to edit it. It will not work
because dired needs the backslash to be quoted but find-dired does not
do that to its output.
On Windows with gnu find set up.
All the subdirectories are separated using \ instead of /, and press
Enter to open the file output would not work for each file.
Cheers,
