Marius Scurtescu commented on CLI-180:
--------------------------------------

Yes, it was in a shell script, and the issue is with the script itself. Sorry about that, and thanks for the hint.

Not an issue, not sure if I can close it myself.

> If an argument contains a space then the part after the space is treated as another argument and you end up with an invalid argument error.
> Tried many things to escape the space: double quotes around the argument value, backslash before the space, short and long forms, etc. Nothing is working.
