Dippy question, but what if DMC was installed in "\Program Files\dm". How 
does one go about escaping the " " in the path name properly for the IDDE to 
pass the option to the compiler. Putting quotes in doesn't appear to help 
when specifying include directories, e.g.,

\Program Files\dm\stlport\stlport;.;.\include

or

\"Program Files"\dm\stlport\stlport;.;.\include

I think it might take:

"\Program Files\dm\stlport\stlport";.;.\include

But I am not sure.

If it does not work try it in the #defines area as:

-I"\Program Files\dm\stlport\stlport" -DYOURDEF1 -DYOURDEF2

Tried that but failed.

 -I"\Program Files\dm\stlport\stlport" -DYOURDEF1 -DYOURDEF2


Negative result on that hack.

Spaces, + signs, and ~'s do not work in filenames with DMC. Sorry.

With all due respect, this probably needs changing. What's the default home
directory for users on XP and 2003? "C:\Documents and Settings\JoeLUser".
It's got a space in it.

Yes, I figured out that the quick hack around the problem, but this question
might just become a FAQ.

I think you're right.
