Spaces in file names will always be fiddly though. It'll work, but it'll still be wrong, because arguments are space separated, and having spaced file names totally messes with that.

I try to just always put files names or paths into quotes in CLI or tie it to a variable in programming. This way it also accepts spaces and knows how to separate it from arguments.

Yeah. It's a good idea to guard against it, but I would still never put spaces in filesnames that I myself choose.
