Hi,

when you cd to a directory that has spaces in its name, you have to
escape
the spaces with a back slash, e.g.:

[/]$ cd dir\ name\ with\ spaces\ in\ name
[/dir name with spaces in name]$

as for scrolling up, try SHIFT+PGUP.

HTH,
David Charles


u can also replace all spaces with ? (most appropriate) or *
or simply type some letters of the directory and use some *
to go to "my mp3 directory"  -> cd my*ry or cd *mp3* can run fine if no other directory in the parent directory uses the same chains of characters in its name.

bye
