I still use spaces
agreed, "still worth it"
I do, however, tend to keep spaces out of my folder names so i can just use quotes at the end.
/Images/Halloween/Projections/"Creepy Crawlies.mp4"
That's what backslash-tab is for
at least you/arent/using\ linux
Computers should just know when I want a space to be part of a file name, and when I want them to be argument separators. No more escaping or quoting.
