I believe Apple has done a good job of filling in some holes, like the Finder for instance, but there comes a point where you need to start treating Mac OS X (especially when accessing Darwin thru Terminal or Xterm) like a Unix operating system. If you insist, I wish you luck, but you're asking for a lot of headaches. Perhaps you can come up with some kind of script* that runs in the background and intercepts certain commands and then escapes the spaces or quotes them or whatever. Fundamentally, this is what the Finder does. Erik * you'd actually be better off writing it in something fast like C or C++ ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
