"Open containing folder" cannot handle paths with spaces
0%
Description
What's the problem?
When the user right-clicks an iso in the list and selects "Open containing folder", it doesn't work whenever the path to the iso contains spaces.
The error message (path to iso could be e.g. /home/xyz/Some Game/game.iso):
stat failed on /home/zombone/.dolphin-emu/Wii/title/00000001/00000002/content:
xdg-open: unexpected argument 'Game'
Suggested solution: Quote the path when passing it to xdg-open.
Dolphin version with the problem (as it appears in the title bar, Ex.: "R
4779" or "R 6403M"): r7393
(optional) Dolphin version that does not have the problem:
Operating system and version: Ubuntu 10.10
32-bit or 64-bit: 64-bit
Game ID (as it appears in game properties, Ex.: "GZ2P01" or "RSBE01"):
Build command-line (not on Windows):
Was the ISO a plain dump from disc, compressed and/or scrubbed?
Please provide any additional information below.

Darn, is there no way to edit this thing?

Windows handles spaces in a different way than linux does. I can confirm this issue on linux. Although, this particular manifestation of the issue is somewhat fixed by revision 7470. That is not thourough way to do it though. The same problem will probably occur with other characters that require special handling on linux.

This seems to be fix in 3.0 and more recent builds for windows and linux (ubuntu 12.04 at least).
