How do I access these files? It does not look like I can copy them?

Wildcard it. Use a * where the space appears and don't enter any of the filename after it. (eg. "D1:ALIEN*.*")

I tried that in the screenshot. I might try a different dos.

try DOS II+/6.x

Using it you can use special char "+" which allows you to copy filename just as is.

Or use some disk editor to change the names and get rid of spaces (i wonder where some person had had his head, by the way!) :D
