As Lasse pointed out, the way round this is to escape the spaces with
a backslash. You can also drag a folder into an open Terminal window
and it'll paste the path at the insertion point, so you can do:
cd [drag folder to the Terminal window]
and you'll get
cd /Library/Application\ Support
complete with trailing space in case you want to drag a bunch of
files... so you can type
cat [drag a few Fire sessions to the Terminal window] > bigfile.txt
and you've got your merged file :)
John.
