>Description:
If I load an .exe created from C++ source using GCC with DWARF2, and the sources files are located in a directory with a space in it, then Insight can't find the source files.  

eg

c:/Eigene Dateien/CppSources/sourcefile1.cpp

If I move the source files to 

c:/Eigene_Dateien/CppSources/sourcefile1.cpp

and recompile, the problem disappears.

The last cygwin build of Insight I used (GNU gdb 5.0 20001125-1) didn't have this problem.

It also seems to be impossible to add a path with a space to the list of directories to be searched for source files
(ie using the directory command)- the usual escape characters don't seem to work.

PS - yes, I know it's pretty stupid to have a path with a space in it.  Blame Microsoft for calling the user's personal storage directory "My Documents".
