It's a bug. Filenames with spaces are foreign to unix, and they're a huge pain in the ***. Problems tend to be found one-by-one, and here's a combination of an infrequently-used function (CVS Release) with an infrequent scenario (directory name with space.) I'll fix the bug as soon as I can.

Thanks again. But if I attempt to browse the code in CVS using the 'Browse CVS Repository' link http://tkcvs.cvs.sourceforge.net/tkcvs on the project Code page, I get the message shown below. This is both in Windows XP using the latest Firefox and Linux (CentOS) using Firefox 1.5:

I don't know what SourceForge's problem is, but if you're in a hurry you can go to http://tksvn.tigris.org/svn/tksvn/trunk and get the latest out of SVN there. I'm using that as my development repository these days.

Hi- if I attempt to CVS/Release a directory whose name contains spaces, I get the error:
{directory name} is not a directory
Is this a bug? Apologies if I've missed something, I'm relatively new to linux/cvs/tkcvs.

TkCVS 8.0.4

Great- thanks.

Fixed and checked into CVS. I wish they were all that easy.
