@tobsecret Thanks -- looks like it may be because you have spaces in your full pathname (2017 July Scipy).

Can you try renaming the directory something like 2017-july-scipy or 2017_july_scipy and run the command again?

Sorry, had some things to fix elsewhere so only now got down to doing this and got another error.
