Application does not export to valid file path

[nus-pe-bot]

Steps to reproduce:

1. From application directory, create new child directory w w/.
2. In the child directory, create new child directory f f/.
3. export w/math f/./w w/f f/

Application unable to export to valid filepath. Furthermore, no error message is displayed (as per the screenshot below), even though the user had already pressed enter.

Team's Response

Firstly, users should not be adding new folders into the app's folder itself.

However, the "problem" that you are addressing may still be performed elsewhere, not in the app folder itself.

Below are the steps I took to replicate the problem you are addressing, and show you how it is not Dukemon's problem.

1. From application directory, create new child directory w w/.
2. In the child directory, create new child directory f f/.

As shown:

Notice how the terminal changed "/" character to ":" character. To navigate, you need to know how to navigate on CLI properly.
The app assumes you are knowledgable with your CLI. As mentioned in DG.

3. export w/math f/.w w:/f f:

Export command works as intended, if you know how to navigate to the folder in the proper way.

In any case, even if the navigation failed, the problem lies with the host machine's CLI inability to handle such navigation, and not Dukemon's.
