Subject: Help: using spaces when I save a new file (C-w)

Hello,

I have been using GNU/Emacs for a few months now and I'm still annoyed by a
little thing: each time I want to save the buffer in a new file, I hit C-w
but I can't use spaces in the file name since the mini-buffer tries to
complete my name (as TAB does too). However, spaces in filenames are quite
common for me and now most of filesystems deal well with spaces in filename.

Is there any way to get that working?

Thanks!

Jiehong
