My geog data is saved on a external hard drive named 'TOSHIBA EXT' -- with a space between the words. This means the official path of my geog data has a space, but WPS ignores the space.

Is there an easy fix here? ...Besides renaming my external hard drive, which I can't seem to be able to do.
 
You could try making a symbolic link -- whose name and path don't contain spaces -- to the original geographical data on your external drive. For example:
Code:
ln -sf /Volumes/TOSHIBA\ EXT/WPS_GEOG /Users/heilfertys/WPS_GEOG
Then, specify the symbolically linked path in your namelist.wps file.
