Just prefix the space with a backslash. Eg: ``$ ls /foo/bar/my\ directory/``. With that backslash in place, you can continue your tab-completion.

Still, on some international keyboards, backspace is hard to reach, eg. on a German Mac keyboard, is it <alt><shift>7.

So don't put spaces in path names, it's a bitch to work with.

You can quote the space:

    mkdir x\ y
    cd x' 'y
(or the entire part: cd 'x y')
