[GAP] Seeing double with GPS debugger

[John McCormick]

Thanks Martin!  My double vision disappeared when I moved the files 
to a directory without any spaces in the path name.  My students work 
off their own memory sticks in our lab so it should not be a problem 
there.  I'll just need to warn them about the GPS space gremlin for 
when they work on their own computers.
