Greetings,

Just started using acme (and sam).  Cool.

I am using acme on a Mac form plan9port.

Within a file list one can right-click a listing in order to decend into
another directory or load a file.  The problem is that neither work if a
space is contained within the name.  Apparently, the right-click
functionality only looks at non-white space strings.  An easy fix to this
would be to allow the user to highlight the entire string (including
spaces) and then right-click as normal.  The system would allow the
highlight facility to override the "just test for contigous non-space
string" current functionality.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks.

Blake McBride
