Hello Paul, A whole lot of things are broken in quilt when it comes to spaces in name of file. As soon as my life gets a bit less hysterical, I'll take the time to fix that perticular bug, but I advise you to rename your files to remove the spaces before using quilt, if possible.
And if you can, well. You'll become my favorite crash tester to that regard ;) Bye, Mt. And sorry again for the delays...
