When trying to debug a project with a space in the path the following happens:

A blank window pops up with what is probably suppose to be the source code I'm stepping through with the test "dbgp source lookup". When I "resume" the code I get the following error(actually more than once) in the console

"DEBUGGER ERROR Command source caused: (100) d:/projects/programming/lua/lua%20library/debugtest.lua: No such file or directory"

which seems like an issue with spaces. My guess is the debugger is trying to find the

Removing the space from the path gets it to work.

Thanks very much!
Ben.

Yes, that is how I got my project to work. I didn't use _ but just remove the space. Haven't had any issues since.

OK... Would you mind opening a bug in LDT's bugzilla so as we can track the problem?
Thank you!
