Fix: Fix $env:TEMP to use the full path instead of the MSDOS 8.3 shortened path for Windows users with long usernames
#168
Conversation
…ortened path for Windows users with long usernames Previously, the value of `$env:TEMP` is, for a Windows user with a long username, something like `C:\users\somelo~1` for an actual path like `C:\users\somelongusername`. This value causes problems with `pandoc` which does not recognize shortened paths. Now, the full path of `$env:TEMP` is resolved. This should fix the script for users with long usernames (anything more than 8 characters).

As discussed here and in #167, the source of the error in #167 was not due to pandoc not being able to parse MSDOS 8.3 shortened paths in Hence, this PR does not qualify as a fix for #167. But it may be an enhancement for readability and understandability sake whem full paths are used instead of shortened paths. #173 |
