Devin, I've always found that quoting things like filepaths sems to
do the trick - is there some problem that quoting doesn't solve?
I'll try that. It may be all I need. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi all,
We have a URLencode function to prepare strings for posting to an
http server. Is there anything comparable for formatting strings to
execute as a shell command? (I'm on OSX). For example, spaces in
file paths have to be escaped with a backslash (\), as do other
characters. What's the best practice for this?
