Your memory if flawed. Spaces were always allowed in unix filenames. Often used to hide things in plain sight on FTP sites, for example. MS Windows didn't allow spaces until Windows 95. I remember the Apple advert at the time - it was a double-page spread which basically just said: C:\NGRTLTNS.W95 in a gajillion-point high font. I pulled that out of a newspaper and had it on my wall at work. Not because I was an Apple fanboi, far from it, but my disdain for all things MS Windows was already entrenched, and I was being forced to use it for the not-the-actual-work part of my job (which was on Sun workstations).

As such, we can cast aside childish remnants from the dawn of our civilization. -- NotSanguine on SoylentNews, after Eugen Weber in /The Western Tradition/
