Hello All,

I am creating some scripts, setting up the environment
 within the script.

e.g.

$ MUSIC_DIR="/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Audiogalaxy\ Satellite/Music/";
  export MUSIC_DIR

cd $MUSIC_DIR
=======================================================================

I get an error:

bash: cd: /cygdrive/c/Program: No such file or directory

I'm sure there is an easy solution, I just can't see it.

now if I created this without a directory (name) with spaces, it works.

thank you for your help

Lamar
