@Kusalananda: I'm unable to get globbing to work with variable assignment
I see, it has to happen with unquoted expansion?
 
Hmmm...
$ touch file
$ s=f*
$ echo $s
file
 
yeah but try echo "$s"
 
No, sorry newbie mistake
:-)
Thanks :-)

Thanks
How have you been @Kusalananda
 
@jesse_b I've been a bit busy with work and personal life and haven't had time to spend more than a few moments on the site a day. I'm unlikely to answer too many questions in the near future and keep to light moderating duties and commenting :-)
You're ok?
 
@Kusalananda Yeah I am also pretty busy recently, big changes coming soon possibly. Is everything okay with you?
 
@jesse_b In a general way, yes. Busy mind. Attention required in other places.
 
4:08 PM
@Kusalananda Well I hope everything works out :)

Image preview in Visual Studio Code on Mac is not working, and I think it might be because the .png file name has spaces in it. Can someone give me suggestions on how to get the image to display correctly using markdown syntax?
Markdown file:
Preview of markdown file in Visual Studio Code Mac:
 
If the name has spaces in it you probably have to use spaces for them
 
I mean actual note as it appears in the Apple Notes app:
@MichaelHomer an application called Exporter created that markdown file from the Apple Notes app note shown above. It used %20 where ever there is a space?
@MichaelHomer you mean change this:

![Apps for students- Useful apps for class and break time--1](images/Apps%20for%20students-%20Useful%20apps%20for%20class%20and%20break%20time--1.jpeg)
To this:

[https://apps.apple.com/gb/story/id1417422848](https://apps.apple.com/gb/story/id1417422848)

![Apps for students- Useful apps for class and break time--1](images/Apps for students-Useful apps for class and break time--1.jpeg)
?
It causes ![Apps for students- Useful apps for class and break time--1](images/Apps for students-Useful apps for class and break time--1.jpeg) to render as it is.
