The following special characters require quotation marks: & < > [ ] { } ^ = ; ! ' + , ` ~ [white space]
If the information that you supply contains spaces, use quotation marks around the text (for example, "Computer Name").
If you process file and directory name completion from within string, any part of the [Path] to the right of the cursor is discarded (that is, at the point in string where the completion was processed).
