[TW5] When setting filters as perimeter for a macro, it doesn't work if the filter is a tag with spaces.

[Penguinlay]

I have a simple macro to count number of tiddlers under a input filter. Title is countTiddlers.

It is tagged with 

$:/tags/Macro

The content is:

\define countTiddlers(filter)

<$count filter="[$filter$]"/>

\end

Now, from a different tiddler, I access that macro.

<<countTiddlers tag[Tag Tiddler Title With Space]>>

If the tag tiddler title has space, it doesn't work. Also, it didn't work for title[Tiddler Title With Space] and other filters with spaces.

As a test, is[system], tag[TagTiddlerTitleWithoutSpace] and any other filters without spaces work fine.

So, is there anything I did wrong here? Or, is there anyway to get around it?

You need to put quotes around the filter like this:

<<countTiddlers "tag[Something With Spaces]">>

otherwise it is split up as a space separated list of inputs and only tag[Something is passed as the first parameter.

I see now! Thank you very much!
