Description
I'm having trouble with the file switcher via Ctrl-o. Micro finds the local files just fine and can cycle through them with the tab key, but opening does not work if there are spaces in the path. This results in an empty buffer.
Advice on how to solve this? Not sure if I'm not missing something.
Thanks!

Reproduce the Ctrl-o file-switcher problem on Linux Mint with a path containing spaces, then trace how the selected path is opened. Confirm the fix by opening such files successfully and adding or running a regression test for paths with spaces.
