Subject: bug#55429: 27.1; browse-url-of-dired-file fails to open file with '#' character
Date: Sun, 15 May 2022 10:33:46 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f94fff00-2b2f-b568-2980-26531e225fec@gmail.com> (raw)
When you use W in a dired buffer to open a file with the '#' character,
the file doesn't get opened. In my limited testing, the problem appears
to be in the function `browse-url-file-url':
(browse-url-file-url "/home/ivo/tmp/file with spaces.txt")
=> "file:///home/ivo/tmp/file%20with%20spaces.txt"
(browse-url-file-url "/home/ivo/tmp/file with #.txt")
=> "file:///home/ivo/tmp/file%20with%20#.txt"
When I use xdg-open directly with these urls, the second one will
fail. It appears that the '#' should also be percent-encoded.
Tested with emacs -Q
