If it helps, Python has "raw string" syntax that can help alleviate this.
>>> print r'/usr/bin/gnuclient -batch -l htmlize -eval "(htmlize-file>
\"test.c\")"'
/usr/bin/gnuclient -batch -l htmlize -eval "(htmlize-file> \"test.c\")"
>>> filename = "test.c"
>>> cmd_template = r'/usr/bin/gnuclient -batch -l htmlize -eval
"(htmlize-file> \"%s\")"'
>>> command = cmd_template % filename
>>> print command
/usr/bin/gnuclient -batch -l htmlize -eval "(htmlize-file> \"test.c\")"
