Version: 2.9.1
OS: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu 
Submission from: (NULL) (130.241.91.3)


Function "tk_choose.files" (tcltk) is intolerant of filenames which contain
whitespace.
In that case, the return value is character vector of whitespace separated
chunks. See example below.


Thank you,


Derek Eder

      # select file: "tk_choose.files test _file .r"   # note white space!
