I have a good one for you guys!
 

I was trying to backup some files from my win2k machine to my linux machine, but now I can't access them after copying them over. Reason spaces in directories names and files...
example "My Files, My Music, My Documents"... I keep getting no such file or directories when trying to CD to these directories in Linux ????
Any ideas how I can access these directories again ????

Use either "" or \ for example: or or I tend to just let the magic tab key help me out! If you ever get filenames with really nasty characters in it there is a way in bash to specify the ASCII code for a chacter but I've never needed to use it.

HTH

Well while I was waiting for some one to post a reply I was trying out few things.

Directories were:

My Files
My Music
My Documens

So I did

mv *Files MyFiles
mv *Music MyMusic
mv *Documents MyDocuments

And it worked...


Thanks anyway,
