I didn't mean to be rude - I thought in fact my point was obvious.
The first time, I had a space between the period and the file and
offered an alternative command which accomplished the exact same ends.
The second time, I actually spelled it out for you and included an arrow
pointing to the space and yet you asked a 3rd time.
Obviously gmail is displaying emails in a fashion that obscures very
important details.
