I know that.

category: Shell Utils

is two categories.

category: "Shell Utils"

is one category.  (Earnie's example was the former, not the latter -- 
hence, two categories)  It is POSSIBLE to have a space in the category 
name, but you must quote properly.  Just like it is POSSIBLE to have a 
space in a directory name ("Program Files") -- but it causes no END of 
headaches.  I am saying: please let us not do this.  Stay with oneword 
category names.  Hungarian-ize them if we must:  ShellUtils
