PR Desc: Fix exclamation points in file names breaking the patcher
Fixes #28
Problem:
A fairly long standing bug where the patcher breaks with exclamation points due to having
ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
set in the patcher for the file counter has been known, and I've been trying to fix it for a few hours now. I have found no other special characters that exhibit this behavior, but if another shows up it will only take one line to fix.Solution:
After some tinkering, I figured out that we are able to move the
ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
setlocal call to right before it's needed in the patcher, and before that run a few commands to remove exclamation points from the file names of anything matching*.wad
in the patcher's folder.Operating Systems Edited: WINDOWS
