I don't use perl in Windows, but I can simulate a similar result on Linux or Mac OS X: mkdir "foo bar" cd "foo bar" touch a b c cd .. perl -le 'print join("\n", <foo bar/*>); I can get things to work by adding in two back slashes befor the space in the name: perl -le 'print join("\n", <foo\\ bar/*>); Perhaps this will work with Windows as well.
