Then IMO it shouldn't matter that there is a space in it. I disagree with your viewpoints and I think if someone wants a space or punctuation in their filename, they should be able to do that without problems.
@TigrisMorte I don't think camel case would make sense for files such as books, music or movies when you want the name to look proper.
@Agility0971 Why didn't passwd tell you the regular user password wasn't actually changed? Isn't that a much bigger issue?
@TigrisMorte Why not? I don't understand the hate with using valid filename characters in filenames. If anything I would argue it makes detecting non-conformant code easier... you wouldn't want a program to skip processing a file because it has the letter Z in it would you?
