I thought it was something stupid like this. That worked just fine.
Thank you, Terry.
Ok, next stupid question. When you have a directory like Program Files
and you're trying to cd to it on the CL, how do you do it? I stumbled
across this a long time ago, but I've since forgotten it. cd Program
Files returns an error like No directory named Program. Of course it
doesn't work with cd Program_Files, cd Program-Files, cd ProgramFiles,
etc., and ls -al just shows it as Program Files, so it doesn't tell me
what Linux ACTUALLY sees the directory name as.
Thanks again for your help Terry. I can actually see that Windoze stuff
now. Now, I gotta get some of that stuff running under Wine. :)
