Very interesting.  I tested this, and noted that you don't actually need
the double quotes around the $x variable.

Could this be made to work with Apache?  Quite often windoze users end
up with spaces in their filenames, and I find it difficult to get them
from web pages (or samba services, sometimes).  Underscores get around
this issue, but sometimes the users want to have the spaces in there...

TIA,

Russell.
