lorri (or direnv?) isn't clean about spaces in PATH about lorri HOT 2 CLOSED

I've tried but failed to reproduce this with Bash:

$ export PATH="/path\ with\ spaces/bla:$PATH"
$ cd lorri/
direnv: loading .envrc
direnv: export +AR +AS +BUILD_REV_COUNT +CARGO_INSTALL_ROOT +CC +CONFIG_SHELL +CXX +HISTFILE +HOST_PATH +IN_NIX_SHELL +LD +NIX_BINTOOLS +NIX_BINTOOLS_WRAPPER_x86_64_unknown_linux_gnu_TARGET_HOST +NIX_BUILD_CORES +NIX_BUILD_TOP +NIX_CC +NIX_CC_WRAPPER_x86_64_unknown_linux_gnu_TARGET_HOST +NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE +NIX_ENFORCE_NO_NATIVE +NIX_HARDENING_ENABLE +NIX_INDENT_MAKE +NIX_LDFLAGS +NIX_LOG_FD +NIX_STORE +NM +OBJCOPY +OBJDUMP +RANLIB +READELF +RUN_TIME_CLOSURE +RUST_BACKTRACE +RUST_SRC_PATH +SIZE +SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH +STRINGS +STRIP +allowSubstitutes +buildInputs +builder +configureFlags +depsBuildBuild +depsBuildBuildPropagated +depsBuildTarget +depsBuildTargetPropagated +depsHostHost +depsHostHostPropagated +depsTargetTarget +depsTargetTargetPropagated +doCheck +doInstallCheck +extraClosure +name +nativeBuildInputs +nobuildPhase +origArgs +origBuilder +origExtraClosure +origOutputs +origPATH +origSystem +out +outputs +patches +phases +preHook +preferLocalBuild +propagatedBuildInputs +propagatedNativeBuildInputs +shell +shellHook +stdenv +strictDeps +system ~PATH
$ echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n' | grep 'exist'
/path with spaces/bla

That looks fine to me. Would you be able to describe a repro case in more detail? I think it would be useful to include

• the $PATH
• the .envrc

from lorri.

I think I might be running into this inside of WSL (windows subsystem for linux), where the PATH has parentheses in it. (Things like Program Files (x86)")

PATH is

.envrc is eval "$(lorri direnv)"

Note that the same thing happens with lorri shell, so I think it's lorri and not direnv

from lorri.
