I imported from an XP OS a number of files into Linux. These files have names
like "Set1 001.png" with a space beteen the Set1 and 001.png. These are
picture files and can be displayed by by GIMP without a hitch inspite of the
space char.
However, anything else I want to do with these files fails due to the presence
of the space. Any individual file can be renamed without problems, thereby
eliminating the space char. However, this is quite cumbersome if there are a
great number of files.
Question: Is there an efficient way (perl ??) to deal with this for all such
files in a particular directory?
