Allowing spaces in pathnames would require an effort superior to that of the correction of the Y2K bug. At least, the Y2K bug was limited to the handling of dates. Handling spaces in pathnames would impact absolutely ALL the programs and scripts ever written (plus the endoctrinement required to prevent further writing of bad scripts, it would probably be easier to try to replace all the shells with ones who would avoid the problem in the first place, which is almost impossible). -- __Pascal Bourguignon__ http://www.informatimago.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized environment for deploying applications.
