Once they are saved you can either rename them without the space in Konqueror, or you can substitute %20 for the space (I think that's correct?) from the command line. I guess the first option is preferable for your users. Being of the 'old school' I never save files with spaces in the name, but windows has positively encouraged it, so you have to find workarounds. Perhaps having to rename before reading will encourage good habits <g>
