[MacPerl] filename with spaces in them



So I have a text file with a name containing spaces which causes an
otherwise perfectly functional script to barf with this error:

# Can't open temporary file Mawenzi:Analysis:test:Ce103.Lzr103.Sun, Sep 8,
1996: Bad address
Mawenzi:Analysis:test:Ce103.Lzr103.Sun, Sep 8, 1996

Presumably there is a trick in MacPerl for dealing with such filenames;
anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks,
M
