Problem w/ cmd line export and space(letter) in folder name

[mathias_lin]

I get the following problem below when I try to export via command line tool and the folder name has a space in it's name (in my case: "Case Work"). Export works fine with a folder without a space (letter) in it's name though. How to handle folder name with a space in it so that xpath doesn't throw the error :?:

org.alfresco.tools.Export -user admin -pwd admin -store workspace://SpacesStore -path "/app:company_home/cm:Case Work" -verbose -overwrite -zip SpacesStore-content
‍‍

The following error has occurred:

03160001 Error executing xpath:
   xpath: /app:company_home/cm:Case Work
org.alfresco.service.cmr.repository.XPathException: 03160001 Error executing xpath:

Furthermore, I wonder, how were the folders like "User Homes" or "Company Home" being created - I mean regarding the fact that their title and folder name is actually with a space "User Homes", while in the node browser they appear with lowercase and underscore, i.e. "user_homes". How can I create my folder in such a way that the primary path would also have a lowercase+underscore (case_work) instead of space.
(I cannot just set the folder name to that cause then the lowercase+underscore name would also be displayed in the Alfresco workplace, which I don't want the end user to see).

Found the solution. Space actually needs to be escaped with _x0020_, so it would be: "/app:company_home/cm:Case_x0020_Work"
