[Box Backup] Exclude directory with space in the name from backup on OS X - BB 0.10

[E.W. Peter Jalajas]

Not sure, but did you try:

    ExcludeDir = "/Volumes/raidA/files/pre\ theft"

(using  both quotes and escapes)

IIRC, I found that I needed to do something like that in bbackupquery
(in command-line quit mode, I believe).
