   Best put a dash between words in file names.
   Not all programs can handle just spaces.

Some programs don't like dashes - interpret them as minus signs -
especially if it's the first character in the filename.  Weird
characters in filenames can often be handled by "escaping" the character
with a backslash "\", although this doesn't cover the case of the "-" as
the first character in the name.  If a filename is my really cool pport
photo.jpg on a windows box, some programs will interpret it as my\
really\ cool\ pport\ photo.jpg.

My personal preference is to use "_" as word seperators in filenames.
Takes essentially the same amount of time to type compared to spaces,
and the only place I have seen where the "_" isn't handled smoothly is
with some fortran compilers.
