Subject: Re: [9fans] spaces in file/dir names? (and acme)?
Date: Thu, 30 May 2002 11:13:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50dde53c4ee179b167e800824a3e6d8f@collyer.net> (raw)

Vowels at least don't bugger parsing and don't require the use of
quoting schemes, which will become increasingly complicated to deal
with embedded spaces, newlines, slashes, and NUL bytes, and which will
make hex file names look appealing.  Vowels can stay.  ☺
