Sorry for crying before finding the nature of the problem. The filename
that I am trying to open is being retrieved from a HTTP GET request
string which encodes the spaces as %20, hence plt-scheme cannot open the
file, because there is no such file with that name.
So, I will now substitute the %20s by a space and then open it.
Best,
Amit
