Nice one, I think working in Linux with no paths with spaces seems
like the best option for me. :D

BTW, WRT text_file_query, at this point, I'm at a loss -- maybe Python
is also the culprit here, because the response seems to be missing
exactly 4 characters (assuming we're missing the \r from the file in
the filesystem). Python might be munging the line-endings in Windows?
That's the only explanation I can think of at the moment though.

Does this manifest when testing against IIS/Apache in Windows? Can
anybody test this?
