My user name under Windows is my full name: first, initial and last. When I decided to build a Windows version of Fossil for the first time I got this:
e:\source\c\fossil>fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org
E:\Source\Repositories\fossil.fsl

1fossil: server says: bad command: login Firstname I. Lastname f4ec7af467f5abe2f9078cbea9521983b0eeced5 2b1a070d129031d15b3353f19696521
dbdd0436d
Checking the environment I found an environment variable "USERNAME" that held that value. Modifying that to just "firstname" got me the following:
e:\source\c\fossil>fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org \Source\Repositories\fossil.fsl

I do not think it is a good idea for fossil to make UNIX-y assumptions about file and user names. Fads in this change over time. Remember when a user was [1,2] and a full file spec was something like _SY:[0,1]FILNAM.EXT? (Those are RSTS/E conventions.)
