The executable works fine in "Program Files" and the scripts work fine with
spaces etc. - that's now I have them configured here...  I wouldn't really
want to start recommending that people move the executables out of "Program
Files" since that's the place where you're supposed to put installed stuff.

I'd agree the repository should be somewhere without spaces... it's a complete
git to use from the command line otherwise :)
