The only difficulty it causes is if your tools can't handle that character very well. These days, *even* on UNIX, most tools should handle spaces in filenames just fine. Would you include what is the most commonly used program in UNIX (the shell) in that? Certainly. I haven't used a shell in the last couple years that doesn't handle spaces in filenames nicely. Which begs the question, what shell are you using that's causing you problems? :) Graeme
