I forward this to the developers list as surely Jean-Marc or Lars
know more about this. It seems a good way to do this. What do other
fellow developers think?

Subject: Re: Problem with dirs containing space
Is it time I recreated a macro that used ctcode magic and \expandafter or
\aftergroup to fix that problem? This could also deal with accented character
>0x7f and that sort of thing. Naturally the generated LaTeX should only resort
to this macro if the file name is a problem. Essentially you can "fix" thje
problem along the lines of
{\catcode`\ =11\aftergroup\input\aftergroup{File name with spaces}}
This works because once a category code is attatched in stays the same, even
if I then move it around with \aftergroup, a token register, \catcode magic
earlier in a macro definition, etc.
