All Unix systems accept spaces and other (strange) characters in file names with few exceptions. Here's one way to take care of it: rename 's/ /_/g' file\ name\ with\ spaces.xxx Use Tab to expand the file name automatically as the shell will insert backslashes for you. The main reason we have issues with spaces in file names is that shell is using spaces to separate "things" on the command line. It interprets words as different options or separate file names given to commands. In addition, a number of utilities and parsers use space as the default separator so spaces are not good idea. Spaces in file names are as ugly as top posting in email. > Note that emc thinks you have a file named intento and not the whole > filename including the .ini > Eliminating the spaces or joining with hyphen or underscore should solve > the problem. > > HTH > > Dave > On Thu, 2011-09-22 at 15:18 -0500, Stuart Stevenson wrote: >> I would change the directory and file names. >> I would remove the spaces. -- Rafael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
