While trying to print and send to export->custom->ascii for an
envelope-printing command we use, I found that a filename like
e&s.lyx, though perfectly legal in Unix, will fail in LyX.  I suspect
filenames like this, because of the & character, need to be protected
in the shell commands that are used for some printing and export
operations.

I got the printing to work by reconfiguring LyX to use dvips without
printing to a file first.  I could not get the export->custom->ascii
to work until I changed the filename.

Hardly a top priority, but it had me cursing until I figured out what
was awry.
