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 ^- why the extra space? All you did is escape one space and insert another one. Use it this way:
cd cxoffice/support/dorwine/fake_windows/Program\ Files -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)
