#Known limitations

#Cmd.exe and quotes

If you tried to use cmd.exe as vr's shell you've probably noticed some weird behaviors if commands contain quotes, ie:

scripts:
  test: deno run "a filename with spaces.ts"

This is caused by Rust's std::Command escaping strategy (used by Deno.run()), see here. For this reason, when possible, the default shell on Windows is set to PowerShell.

#Custom executable names

deno install allows you to choose a custom executable name thought the -n/--name option. However, some of vr's features such as git hooks and the upgrade command won't work correctly with a name different from vr. This will hopefully be possible when Deno adds a way for CLI authors to retrieve the installed name, see here.
