relative path issue on windows

[lennartgross]

When Compiling a .mmd file on windows, I get the following error:

[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
[cmd: ['mmdc', '-i', 'optic_design.mmd', '-o', 'optic_design.png', '-b', 'transparent', '--width', '2048', '--height', '2048', '--scale', '2']]
[dir: C:\resources\dissertation\Optic Design]

[Finished]

mmdc is in path.
running the same command from CMD with absolute paths instead, everything works fine:

C:\Users\l.gross>mmdc -i "C:\resources\dissertation\Optic Design\optic_design.mmd" -o "C:\resources\dissertation\Optic Design\optic_design.png" -b transparent --width 2048 --height 2048 --scale 2
Generating single mermaid chart

Do I miss a toggle or something to set the dir correctly?

I also hit this issue with the Mermaid build command. And verified that mmdc is in my path (C:\Users\<NAME>\AppData\Roaming\npm -- you have this as well).

My current workaround is using Terminus to run the command.
