Quoted text produces an error

Open clnpc opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

The problem:

If a value of an option contains text enclosed in quotation marks, an error will be generated.

Details:

Let's assume that the Fallout4.ini file contains the following line:

[General]
...
sStartingConsoleCommand=bat "batches\autoexec.txt"

and the file autoexec.txt (in <Fallout 4 Root dir>\batches subfolder) contains the following code: coc ctest

Then, when the game starts without PrivateProfileRedirector being active, you (as a default PC char) will be teleported to the ctest cell and the console output will show these lines:

bat "batches\autoexec.txt"
Command: bat "batches\autoexec.txt"
> coc ctest

But if the game starts with PrivateProfileRedirector, you won't be teleported anywhere and the console window will show these lines:

bat "batches\autoexec.txt
Command: bat "batches\autoexec.txt
Syntax Error. Mismatched quotes.
You must enter a filename.
