How do I cd / into a windows directory that has a space in the folder name (eg Program Files)?
I have tried to run WINE and cannot open any folder with a space in the name. I have renmaed the folder to remove the space - but then the program cannot find the necessary file to run (such as dlls.
Suggestions?
I think you had to put a "\" with out the quotes in the blank space. Been a while since I have done but I think that is right.

That won't work, ~> cd cxoffice/support/dotwine/fake_windows/Program \ Files bash: cd: cxoffice/support/dotwine/fake_windows/Program: No such file or directory It should be "Program Files", on some directories like My Documents, cd My<TAB> inserts the " <space>\<space> ", then D<TAB> supplies Documents to give My \ Documents.
