Flatten: Using a single space character as delimiter

[raufaser]

Hi.

I am trying to flatten my QSOs. I put multiple World Castle Award references into the field comment. Simply seperated by a whitespace.

I am using Windows Power Shell and something like this doesn't work:

.\adifmt-windows-amd64.exe flatten --fields comment --delimiter "comment=' '"

And this:

.\adifmt-windows-amd64.exe flatten --fields comment --delimiter 'comment= '

gives an error:

Error running flatten: don't know delimiter for field "COMMENT" of type String

Any idea how to get it running?

Great catch, I didn't think of testing with whitespace as a delimiter. I've filed this as issue #11.

Until that's fixed, the only way I can think to solve your problem is to use a text editor or something like sed or awk to replace your space delimiters with commas or something. I should be able to push a fix soon.

Fixed in v0.1.15. I actually did have a test for space as a delimiter, but that test didn't go through the flag parsing layer, so I've added some end-to-end tests in the adifmt/testdata directory.
