Thanks Tomas, I confirm the R Under development (unstable) (2018-04-26 r74651) version works for Rscript when the file name has a space, and no arguments are specified.

It seems the fix has not been ported to the patched version of R on Windows yet. I just tested R version 3.5.0 Patched (2018-04-27 r74667). IMHO this bug is so bad that it is worth a new release R 3.5.1 before it starts biting more users like this one https://stackoverflow.com/q/50077412/559676. BTW, although the bug has been fixed (https://github.com/wch/r-source/commit/c29f694), I think it will be even better if a corresponding test is added at the same time to prevent this from happening again in the future.

I don't have an opinion if this requires 3.5.1 to be released soon(er), but I have ported to R-patched now. The bug existed in R-devel for a year without being spotted, which is quite a long time - but it may be these bugs are hard to find before release, because people testing and using an unreleased version of R would not use space in file names. As apparently users of released versions do, we should do better about testing, perhaps test regularly with space in path names on a system that supports it. I think normal regression tests should not depend on such support. In either case, I would recommend users to avoid space in file names to be safe. One known problem is that some packages will not build when RHOME has space in its name (on Windows, this is not a problem on drives with short file names supported, but that is not always the case) - CRAN is now checking the most common source of this issue, but there may be more.

The usual procedure is fix in R-devel, give some time for further testing/review also by others (depends on the severity of the bug and the risk of introducing new bugs by the fix), then update NEWS in R-devel, then eventually port both the fix and the NEWS entry to R-patched.> > > On Sat, Apr 28, 2018 at 11:36 PM, Tomas Kalibera > <tomas.kalibera at gmail.com <mailto:tomas.kalibera at gmail.com>> wrote: > > > I don't have an opinion if this requires 3.5.1 to be released > soon(er), but I have ported to R-patched now.

It may be also a third party application that is not robust against space in file name (e.g. Make, where it is by design and essentially cannot be fixed). I think ideally in we should in all roles (administrator, user, package developer, R internals developer) try to avoid space in file names, try to educate people to avoid space in file names, but also try to make systems work even with space in file name. When you find a bug in R itself that prevents something from working with space in filename, please file a bug report. Especially when a bug has been introduced between R versions, it is usually easy to fix it - of course there is no guarantee but you may easily be given a workaround within few hours. If you find such error in a package, please report to package author (and if repeatedly unresponsive, please report to repository maintainer - e.g. CRAN).
