Hello,

I have just tried to import a .fig figure to TeXmacs and I've just got a 
little white square instead of the image. The terminal output of TeXmacs was:

TeXmacs] Running ghostscript /home/javier/Documentos/Practicas planta 
piloto/03-04/curva_secado.fig
Usage: fig2ps <input.fig> <output.ps>

I have solved the problem renaming the directory where the figure was to 
Practicas_planta_piloto. I know that it's not a very good practice to use 
spaces in the directory and file names but nowadays it shouldn't be a 
problem.

Although I don't know a word about programming, I suppose that TeXmacs sends 
the following command:

fig2ps /home/javier/Documentos/Practicas planta piloto/03-04/curva_secado.fig 
whatever.ps

Probably, if TeXmacs sent:

fig2ps "/home/javier/Documentos/Practicas planta 
piloto/03-04/curva_secado.fig" whatever.ps

or

fig2ps /home/javier/Documentos/Practicas\ planta\ 
piloto/03-04/curva_secado.fig" whatever.ps

the problem would be solved.
