I know that.
category: Shell Utils
is two categories.
category: "Shell Utils"
is one category. (Earnie's example was the former, not the latter --
hence, two categories) It is POSSIBLE to have a space in the category
name, but you must quote properly. Just like it is POSSIBLE to have a
space in a directory name ("Program Files") -- but it causes no END of
headaches. I am saying: please let us not do this. Stay with oneword
category names. Hungarian-ize them if we must: ShellUtils
