Hi, I'm working on an app which can accept command line arguments. I have noticed that LV assumes everything what is separated by a space is a separate argument, so passing strings and paths are not that easy because eg path="c:\program files\test app\test.exe" Is considered three separate arguments: 1: path="c:\program 2: files\test 3: app\test.exe" sure its not too much of a work to write a code which takes care of this, but I'm wondering if there is an obvious workaround. Thx.

Command Line arguments with spaces?

The conclusion is that if a string is in quotation marks then it is considered a single value EXCEPT if there is a string before that.

This just seems poorly worded. If a parameter starts with a quotation mark, the string will end with the next quotation mark. If not, then it ends at the next space.
