Any solutions for this problem with quotes and spaces in tcsh script? Or is tcsh not suitable for this kind of things?
Ugh, the latter. :-) /bin/sh handles nested quoting right, but crunches the space together:
% foo="-f \"t \"" % echo $foo -f "t "
% foo='-f "t "' % echo $foo -f "t "
...however, you might be able to muck with $IFS and get better results. Also, ZSH seems to do exactly what you expected:
64-sec% foo="-f \"t \"" 65-sec% echo $foo -f "t "
67-sec% foo='-f "t "' 68-sec% echo $foo -f "t "
