Here's what I'm working on for Canti v1.85:

-[completed] Bug fix: @manga_prefix not working properly
-[completed] Bug fix: Auto binding not working properly
-[completed] Bug fix: Binding will bind the wrong folders
-[completed] User can specify location of .properties file
-[completed] Add default .properties profiles for JetBook and JetBook Lite
-[completed] Add support for spaces in paths

I figured out why spaces in paths were not working. It has to do with the way Java calls external programs (ImageMagick and rar handlers). I finally got a spaces in paths sample to work through hardcoding, now I have to figure a way to handle this in general.

-Update-
Got spaces in paths working for rar operations (well, they're working on Linux anyway, I still need to test on Windows). Adding spaces in paths support for ImageMagick operations will take some time as there is a lot of code that needs to be rewritten. For anyone interested, here is the issue explained from a programming perspective: http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?th...558623&start=0

-Update 2-
I think I finally got spaces in paths working for all of Canti. I still need to test it in Windows, but it works perfectly in Linux. What a pain that was, at least I learned some new stuff.
