> Why is quoting the password a good thing? What's the trouble with
quoting correctly?
Well, as soon as you need to escape your quoting character because you use
it in your password it gets messy easily. And what I did say, was that
it's a good thing to give the user a hint about correctly quoting the
password. Not that the need for quoting on the user side is a good thing.
In fact, I think we should abstract that away from the user. They should
just be able to enter their password and Tor Launcher should take care of
the proper quoting if needed.
