How can I cd into a dir, when it contains spaces, and I need to use it in a script?
the directory: /home/user/this is a folder/something
normally I would use: cd /home/user/this\ is\ a\ folder/something/
but in a script I cant just add the "" like:
find . -type d | while read FOLDER; do cd $FOLDER; done $ No such file or directory
find . -type d | while read FOLDER; do cd "$FOLDER"; done
should do the trick...
