But for the local file names I guess quoting could be used? (But it
might still be unclear?)
On w32 a solution might be to send short path names to the ftp program
if there are spaces in the local file name. I do not know about other
platforms though. Quoting the local file name before sending it to the
ftp program seems to be more platform independent.
I would be glad if we could solve this bug on the local side.
