Friedrich ended my marital discord by pointing out the -cd- command
was all that I needed to get around spaces in filenames.

To Nick and Kit:  In some places one cannot divorce one's OS simply
because one does not find it satisfactory... Mine is an arranged
marriage, and my significant other and I have to work through these
small problems for the sake of the family.

Thanks again!
