I recently started to work with python and found this by accidentally as I was trying to open current folder I am in.

I have a "python&sql" folder and tried to open while in terminal. since "vscode ." does not work (as in #898), I tried using "vscode %cd%" and in return got this error message:

'sql' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

took me a while to see the problem. changing the folder name as "python-sql", the command successfully opened the folder in VS Code.

Please take a look and fix.
