2) Single quotes have no special meaning in Jess, but double quotes
are string delimiters. They can be escaped with a backslash.
2) Jess has a "format" command that works like
java.lang.String.format().
So putting 2 and 2 together, you might invoke this UNIX command from
Jess like
(system sh -c (format nil "awk '{$1=\"\"; print}' < %s > %s" ?fnamein ?
fnameout))

Hi,
I need to call unix cmds that contain a mix of single and double
quotes.
ie
awk '{$1=""; print }' ?fnamein > ?fnameout
However I have not managed to find a combination of quotes that
works. What is best practice for handling quotes?
Kind Regards,
Joe
