Oftentime, I've used this to alleviate problems caused by embedded spaces created by test scripts, etc.

I'd expect you'd also need to mv them another file system just to ensure you're not clobbering the input file...your original drive likely has no real directory structure beyond root, just a single listing of files with these pipes embedded.
