Apologies for this OT post. I need some help debugging a bash script. It just happens to be provided by Apple Inc.

In a terminal session under OSX-10.9.3 I want do do this:

cd ~/'Library/Application Support'

Works for me on my OS X 10.8.5 Macbook Pro, xterm under xQuartz and under the Terminal.app.

The OP likely has a function called "cd" which does other stuff (sets the prompt?) and then calls the builtin cd, but its not quoting the variables properly and so breaking.
