Well now, if I use what you suggest, `Summary II.tex', then TeXShop runs 
it fine (on bash, I think, as it is the default shell for me) --- and 
from the terminal, bash & ksh work, but not tcsh or zsh!  I can run 
`test II.tex' no problem, but get the message in tcsh and zsh, `Summary 
II.tex' gets:

(Also, I use auto-completion at the command line and the shell inserts 
the \<sp> automatically. )

What's your default shell for TeXShop (I suppose what loads with your 
.profile or some other dot file)? Maybe SnowLeopard changed it?
