1 Hi All,
2
3 I was trying to scp a file which had spaces in its name; e.g.
4
5 This\ is\ the\ name\ of\ it.txt
6
7 But scp would fail each time saying that the name is ambiguous (or
8 something similar). I also tried enclosing the name in 'single', or
9 "double" quotes, but it wouldn't have any.
10
11 What's the right way of doing this?
12
13 Both boxen running gentoo and I was using bash shell.
