Date: Sat, 10 Apr 2004 18:49:47 -0500 I did not know about the quotes thing. So I can now write: ren radio shows.mp3 ".radio shows.mp3" I thought I new about all there was to know about DOS.

If I may ask, what trouble are you having with the files? I, too, use Windows and DOS boxes, but am having no difficulty though I will admit that my attitude has been "create and forget". Could you give specifics of what you have trouble doing with them? I never have to rename the files, as I use Brian's script to get them in the first place. Even when I do have to rename them (when I made them with Dectalk Access 32), and when they contained spaces, I used quotes in the ren command and it worked fine. Again, I'm not saying the period should be kept, just that I'm not sure why removing it is necessary.

But my question is: Can we use the TBX extension, but drop the period in front? Thanks.

Especially since I typically have spaces in my folders & files. I prefer to not use dashes in my names, I prefer using files like radio shows.tbx, as even in a DOS box, it will have trouble with files like this with a period in front.
