passing arguments to system command

[scooter6 at gmail.com]

I have a process that triggers an email at the end and I pass several
variables to my shell script
All of these parameters are short and contain  no spaces....

How do I character escape a string I want to send my script that would have
spaces in it?
Meaning how would I send literal " (quotes) around a longer variable that
has spaces in it?


thanks

Scott
