While at it, please disallow spaces in filenames in line type 1.

The file names always fall at the end of the line, so, "because

   I replied on another message but they are taking almost an entire
day to show up. My reason is simply consistency: spaces are used to
separate fields, but when it comes to file names, spaces are part of
the field. If we used commas to separate fields for example I'd ask
commas to be disallowed from file names instead.
