Problem running .command file [duplicate]

I am trying to include a command in a TeX file to a bibliography file that I am storing centrally.

However, when including the filepath, like

/Foldername with whitespace/ANOTHER folder name with whitespace/nowsinfldrname/bibo.bib

my Unix-based typesetting system complains. Is there a way to rectify that other than renaming my folders?

Solution 1:

In bash, there are two main ways to have spaces in path names:

• Backslash escape the spaces

  /path/to/folder\ with\ spaces/
  

• Wrap with quote marks

  "/path/to/folder with spaces and $variable/"
  

  '/path/to/folder with spaces and a literal $/'
  

  Double quote marks expand shell variables. Single quote marks do not.

Solution 2:

Escape the spaces with a backslash:

This\ has\ spaces
