Hi guys,
I realized that acme gets confused when handling files with spaces in
their names, is there an easy way to handle this?
I mean, for example, when I paint a file name with an space on it,
using the left click, it would be nice that acme could open that file.
Obviously removing spaces from my file names is a solution, but can
acme handle this by its own?
Have a nice day

There exists a 9P wrapper that you can slot between your normal fs and
Acme that will translate characters. I'm not sure what it's called, or
where it lives. Sorry.

The Acme SAC (based on Inferno) uses this automatically and maps
spaces to little "space" characters (␣).

trfs.
We're using it within the 9fs script so everything can use it.

I think it must be in /n/sources/contrib/nemo
somewhere (it was part of Plan B).

If you cannot find it just drop me a line and I'll copy it again.

I couldn't find anything in /n/sources/contrib/nemo. Can you please
copy it again?
