This is the option I went with... and it was nice to learn about using '\' to 
move and command sub-directories. 

The other suggestions would have worked just fine, too - including renaming the 








































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































sub-directory - but none of those were needed as deon set me straight in the 
first reply.

Thanks, all - it was just a little bit tricky and I didn't wanna mess around 
with bad syntax when the home directory might have been in jeopardy. :P

Its weird how Mystic created this directory in the first place; I've used the 
'~/mystic/whatever' format for things before, and I think its safer to always 
use the full '/home/user/mystic' style when calling directories in nix. I'll 
always use the full path from now on and replace any calls to the former if I 
see them.
