10 for filename in * #Traverse all files in directory.
11 do
12 echo "$filename" | grep -q " " # Check whether filename

Why not do case $filename in *\ *)... ?

We also note "An on-screen countdown timer would be nice."
Maybe something like

dm=nodm s=4
perl -we 'use strict; $|++; for(my $i='$s';$i>=0;$i--){sleep 1;print "$i "}'&
echo -n "==================== $0: ====================
Type some characters and then RET within $s seconds, else \"$dm\" will start.
(Shift-PgUp/PgDn don't count.)
Type just RET to start right away. "; read -t $s x && set +o monitor && kill $!
if test -z "$x"
then /etc/init.d/$dm start
fi

I used perl to avoid making one process for each sleep. Probably there
is a better pure bash solution, maybe using several read -timeout 1's.
