This is a really convoluted way of doing things, and you'd have to be a
super expert in quoting to get this right. Instead, why don't you

Hi All,
I am trying to build a command line with spaces in the argument. This
demonstrates what I am trying to do. Clearly the first two commands work
fine. However, the last 4 lines to not.

Works fine for me. Define short while (to a geologist, that could be a
few millenia). What is the exit code when your script does terminate?
Lol, yeah that was a little weak on my part...
It ran for about a minute.
I am not sure what caused the non 0 exit, I made a new condition based
