cannot `cd $_` to $_ containing spaces


I made a directory with a space in the name, and tried to cd into it using $_, and failed. Just trying to be a good citizen, I wouldn't be surprised if this is known or somehow a feature.


~ % mkdir ArcGIS\ SDKs

~ % cd $_

cd: string not in pwd: ArcGIS



~ % echo $SHELL

/bin/zsh


~ % uname -a
