Hi,

it should work with quotation.
The bash and other shells do need quotes for correct evaluation because spaces 
usually are used as separation operator:

> ls
Dokumente und Einstellungen
...

> cd Dokumente und Einstellungen
bash: cd: Dokumente: No such file or directory

> cd "Dokumente und Einstellungen"
Dokumente und Einstellungen >

The first version can not work because if you e. g. want to delete directories 
Dokumente, und and Einstellungen you have to type 
rm -rf Dokumente und Einstellungen
and these directories are independent from "Dokumente und Einstellungen".

But it's a bad idea to use spaces in file/directory names because standards 
like ANSI C do define spaces as separation operator and therefore one command 
line option like the above directory name (without quotes) would be read as  
three command line options.

Regards,

Rolf
