in thread Problems with special characters in Linux file names

I put the code snippet, which came directly from my program, into a file and, it works! There is so little code, I don't know how it works in one place and NOT the other.

I'll post another comment as soon as I find what I did wrong.

Sorry

Thanks,

    Sorry, sorry, sorry! Operator error! It wasn't the filename, the problem was I didn't include the path. I added the path and all is well.

    I'm so embarrassed. Please ignore this post!

      Don’t be embarrassed. Almost every monk has a slew of ridiculous mistakes in their back catalog. Learning and building are more important than the bumps along the way.
