After building and installing (I did this via the Turbogears easy_install), there existed a file 'has space.htm'
# ls CherryPy-2.3.0-py2.5.egg/cherrypy/test/static/ dirback.jpg has space.html index.html
The presence of a space ' ' character in the filename:
- Broke an in-house script.
- Does not conform with cherrypy filename style so far as I can see.
- Is in general bad style.
Perhaps it should be changed to the name 'has_space.htm'.

Looks like someone beat me to it in trunk; backported to the 2.x line in [1979].


No; it exists to test serving files which have spaces in the filename. If it's a problem, the test should create it dynamically at test time rather than distribute a static copy.
