When I try to opne a .tex file in a directory
containing spaces, it fails. The Problem is that the
space is not escaped. The commands used are:
cd /any/directory/contains whitespace/

It should be:

cd /any/directory/contains\ whitespace

or maybe

cd "/any/directory/contains whitespace"

I'm running a RedHat 8 System using Gnome2.
