TikZ + gnuplot

Hello, i was working with this example:
        http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/gnuplot-basics/

and i named my tex file, say "Hw 2" then ran pdflatex so TikZ would  
create the "Hw 2.myplotid.gnuplot" file, right?

Ok, Here's the created file content

--
set terminal table; set output ""Hw 2".myplotid.table"; set format "%.
5f"
set samples 25; plot [x=-1.5:9] -x*exp(-x/2)
       
-----

The problem is, gnuplot couldn't run that, because there's a double  
quote (") in there. So, i had to create a file whose name didn't have  
spaces,
because i think TikZ doesn't like them here.

Is this only happening to me? :]

Also, is there any IRC channel where you guys are beside #tikz at freenode.net
?

Specs:
OS:
        Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard)

TikZ version:
        I don't know how to see it! :$
       
gnuplot version:
        gnuplot 4.2 patchlevel 5

with MacTeX 2008


Thanks.
