Terminal Command Fails because of Space in Path

Terminal Command Fails because of Space in Path

I tried setting up a Ruby on Rails project on my nice safe volume "Data
RAID". The set up with some strange that I eventually tracked down to the
space in the path name. It works if I execute it on another volume. I
tried setting up a symlink to the directory, which works fine with the CD
command, but doesn't help with the set up. Is it possible to get an
application to use a symlink or other method that avoids the pathname with
a space?
The command I'm running that error out is
Rails new projectnamae
One other twist is something I set up to specify the location of the gems:
mkdir ~/.bundle
touch ~/.bundle/config
echo 'BUNDLE_PATH: vendor/bundle' >> ~/.bundle/config
It is with the gems that I'm getting the error.
