Hi list,

I have several links that use the file protocol to open files indexed in
org entries. They work fine for entries that point to file whose filenames
do *not* contain space, but for entries with space in them, it just fails
silently. I.e:

  [[file:/Volumes/ext-hd/pdfs/Name\ Of\ The-\ 4th\ file.pdf]]

I even escaped the filename using the (shell-quote-argument) function when
indexing, but no luck.

Any ideas?

More info:

- GNU Emacs 23.4.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of
2012-01-29 on bob.porkrind.org
- Org-mode version 7.9.1 (release_7.9.1-145-g0a6165-git @ mixed
installation! /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org/ and
/Users/fullofcaffeine/.emacs.d/vendor/org/lisp/)
- Mac OSX Lion.

Thanks,

- Marcelo.
