Actual behavior

ctag not generate when optionsFile have space

Expected behavior

generate ctag when path have space

Steps to reproduce:

• generate ctag Python: Build Workspace symbols
• return in console
  ctags.exe: cannot open option file ""C:\Users\User with space\.vscode\extensions\donjayamanne.python-0.6.7\resources\ctagOptions"" : Invalid argument

Settings

Your launch.json (if dealing with debugger issues):

Your settings.json:

Logs

Output from Python output panel

 ctags.exe: cannot open option file ""C:\Users\User with space\.vscode\extensions\donjayamanne.python-0.6.7\resources\ctagOptions"" : Invalid argument

Output from Console window (Help->Developer Tools menu)

In this moment I replace

@generator.js line 29
- const optionsFile = this.optionsFile.indexOf(' ') > 0 ? `"${this.optionsFile}"` : this.optionsFile;
+ const optionsFile = this.optionsFile;

and its work fine, ctag generated.
