Hi tkatchev,

I've noticed that the latest version of gargoyle (atleast 2010.09.01-9) seems to ignore games passed as a command line argument, if the file path has a space in it. This used to work, but seems to have stopped working about the time an built-in file chooser dialog was added

So something like:
Code:
/usr/bin/gargoyle /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/Interactive\ Fiction/Alabaster.glorb
would fail; although choosing it from within Gargoyle works.

I'm not sure if you plan to support the command line arguments (as most people won't use that), but it does break my launcher
(OK, it only breaks if you've got games stored in a directory with a space in it and you use the command line to launch them. I also noticed that I was not escaping the spaces correctly in my launcher, which I've fixed in the latest version -- will be pushed to extras-testing shortly)
