Yes. That's why I expected it to fail. :> In a normal command line I would put single quotes around that and it would be fine, or backwhack the /. Unfortunately, Racket disliked both of those solutions, hence the problem. I'm trying to download a friend's files and was trying to use the filenames she gave them on Flickr. I already had a working version that transformed the filenames to remove difficult characters, but I was hoping there was a cleaner way.
