Allowing spaces in directory and file names was a nutty
idea which has cost more over time than the Iraq war and
current financial debacle combined.
(I'll assume the above is sarcastic, and not meant to be factual. A couple of
trillion dollars is a lot of money, regardless of the exchange rate.)
Actually, spaces have been allowed in file names since reasonably early in UNIX
history; however, since UNIX users back then were smarter than the average
Microsoft, spaces and other odd characters were avoided unless obfuscation was
desired. The nutty idea wasn't allowing spaces but instead requiring their use
for any and all normal activities - for that Microsoft should be awarded the
opposite of the Nobel peace prize.
