When typing the name of the new directory, 'space' does not give a space. The question is how to get spaces in directory names then? Of course, on can use wdired-mode to add a space after creating the directory or use M-! foo\ bar or M-! 'foo bar' to create a directory name with spaces, but I am wondering if there is a solution via '+' (or is this a bug?). Cheers, Marius
