Inventors' Kit 4.1 SIK code unreadable in Linux

I downloaded the SIK code examples so I can follow the examples in the Inventors’ Kit booklet. SIK code seems to work without complaint under Windows 10, but Linux seems to choke on what appears to be the filenames.

The filenames were never modified and are unchanged from what is in the ZIP file, but errors persist of seemingly phantom illegal filename messages that appear once for ever INO file in the SIK examples distribution. An example error message is:

That is to say, the filenames look fine (example: /usr/share/doc/arduino-core/examples/SIK-Guide-Code/SIK_Circuit_1B-Potentiometer/SIK_Circuit_1B-Potentiometer.ino). I don’t see the problem here.

Any ideas?

Maybe try renaming the files? I am guessing the message means that it doesn’t like one of the characters in the file path.
