Launch external applications from bzr-explorer

 

Ian,

You seems to tend to use simple string to format command line when external tool/application is launched. I think this is not the best approach and it has flaw re filenames/paths with spaces inside.

The better approach would be using lists, but I'm not sure how it will be compatible with templates in xml/ini files.

Another approach is always quote items which is inserted to command-line.

I have no time to actually dig into this right now, so this mail is just reminder for future.
