I found in one traball file named "Read Me". I extract archive, open extracted dir in mc and by cursor keys i highligh this file and then i press F4 to edit it. IMHO, in this time, the mc sends highlighted name to editor, no mater if it is mcedit or other. And mc must know, that there is only one highlighted file.

If I want to open this file from shell, then i must quote it:

mcedit "Read me"

or by

mcedit Read\ Me

and it works. But when i send filename to editor by pressing F4, this quoting must by done by mc.
