Attached are patches that enable pathnames created with the "file" scheme to contain #\Space characters. The causes of this a little deeper, involving a mistaken use of URL encoding rules suitable for HTML forms rather than the more proper URI encoding rules.
The patches work well under UNIX (actually OS X), but run into problems on Windows.
Comments and feedback on this direction solicited.
The plan would be to release an abcl-0.23.1 sometime in the next few days, once the patches have had some independent testing.
