When using Geany on Windows, I am forced to use DOS-style names to add programs to my tool path.
Intead of "C:\Users\User\Documents\Windows Scripts\script.bat," I have to use "C:\Users\User\Documents\Window~1\script.bat" because Geany sees the path as separate arguments, and quoting does nothing to alleviate the problem.
Am I doing something wrong or am I going to just have to use DOS filenames or add the location to my %PATH% system variable?

Personally I don't use Windows, but please file a bug about this, mentioning which tool(s) don't work.

Where exactly did you tried this command? I tried it as normal file which opens fine in Geany (on Windows 7, using Geany 0.19.1) and also as 'grep' command in Geany's preferences dialog, Tools tab. I didn't quote anything special, just inserted the command as it is.
