- Subject: Directory names with spaces - No such - in script
Hello All,
I am creating some scripts, setting up the environment
within the script.
e.g.
$ MUSIC_DIR="/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Audiogalaxy\ Satellite/Music/";
export MUSIC_DIR
cd $MUSIC_DIR
=======================================================================
I get an error:
bash: cd: /cygdrive/c/Program: No such file or directory
I'm sure there is an easy solution, I just can't see it.
now if I created this without a directory (name) with spaces, it works.
thank you for your help
Lamar
