$path=$5;
$path=~s/ /\\ /g; <

won't 

$path=$5=~s/ /\\ /g;

work?  maybe have to put () around the $5=~, but I think it will work without that.

I don't understand.  Is this part of a bash script?
It looks like you a trying to assign the fifth parameter 
(path=$5) to a variable named path (which BTW is not the
PATH) and then manipulate it in some way (something to do 
with \ I think).

Perhaps this is some language that I am unfamiliar with?
If so, I apologize.  However, if is bash, I suggest you 
explain in words what you want to do, and I will try to
script it.

Cheers,
Steven
