RSpec: adding "--format s" to spec.opts causes rake spec to

Windows XP SP 2
ruby 1.8.5

gems:
rails 1.2.3
rake 0.7.3

plugins:
rspec 1.0.8
rspec_rails 1.0.8

Running spec with “rake spec SPEC_OPTS=”–format s" and “ruby script/
spec --format s” works fine.

But if I add “–format s” to my spec.opts then rake spec fails (see
error below)

here is my spec.opts:
–colour
–format s
progress
–loadby
mtime
–reverse
–drb

Error:

D:\dev\project>rake spec

our_runner.rb:98:in `find_paths’: File or directory not found:

Error)

Figured it out…removing the option “progress” fixed the error
