That's very satisfying.
If my file names don't work on the server my client is committed to, can I tell
him he should pay me anyway, because I'm right and he should be ashamed of his
broken server?

I go back only to 1984 with spaces, but they broke one part or another of the
Xcode/GNU toolchain as recently as a couple of years ago. I could have
denounced Xcode (Project Builder, CodeWarrior, THINK C, MPW) as simply broken,
but given the choice between going on strike 1984-2009, and producing something
I could get paid for, I took the spaces out.
