PySys [0.9.2]. About running testcases when their ids are of the form 'token1<blank>token2<blank>…'

Question

I've named a testcase as 'Delete Trades', so when I try to run it, from its parent directory, in any of the following ways:

pysys run Delete Trades
pysys run Delete\ Trades
pysys run "Delete Trades"

I always get the same outcome:

2016-06-19 14:18:41,405 INFO  Unable to locate requested testcase(s)
2016-06-19 14:18:41,430 CRIT
2016-06-19 14:18:41,430 CRIT  Test duration: 0.00 (secs)
2016-06-19 14:18:41,431 CRIT
2016-06-19 14:18:41,433 CRIT  Summary of non passes and tests requiring inspection:
2016-06-19 14:18:41,433 CRIT      THERE WERE NO NON PASSES

So, is there a way of invoking this testcase execution to work as expected?

Thanks, in advance, for all your help.

Is this on windows? A quick try (renaming the first example Fibonacci test) on linux shows that "pysys.py run Delete\\ Trades" does work;

$ mv Fibonacci_test_001 "Delete Trades"
$ pysys.py run Delete\ Trades

Added - this is also working for me on windows (as below). Which version of python and pysys are you running?

C:\Users\moray\Development\pysys\trunk\pysys-examples\fibonacci\testcases>\Python27\python.exe \Python27\Scripts\pysys.py run "Del
ete Trades"
