Bug Report

Current Behavior

scoop install \path\to\app.json doesn't work for paths with spaces.

Expected Behavior

Should it work with spaces? Maybe I don't know quotaion rules in a PS console.

Possible Solution

Use paths without spaces. :-) Sorry if this is known like a "won't fix" bug. In that case may you point me to a reference that clarifies it (help, wiki, etc)?
