String::ShellQuote \- quote strings for passing through the shell

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This module contains some functions which are useful for quoting strings
which are going to pass through the shell or a shell-like object.
.IP "\fBshell_quote\fR [\fIstring\fR]..." 4
.IX Item "shell_quote [string]..."
\&\fBshell_quote\fR quotes strings so they can be passed through the shell.
Each \fIstring\fR is quoted so that the shell will pass it along as a
single argument and without further interpretation. If no \fIstring\fRs
are given an empty string is returned.
.Sp
If any \fIstring\fR can't be safely quoted \fBshell_quote\fR will \fBcroak\fR.
.IP "\fBshell_quote_best_effort\fR [\fIstring\fR]..." 4
.IX Item "shell_quote_best_effort [string]..."
This is like \fBshell_quote\fR, excpet if the string can't be safely quoted
it does the best it can and returns the result, instead of dying.
.IP "\fBshell_comment_quote\fR [\fIstring\fR]" 4
.IX Item "shell_comment_quote [string]"
\&\fBshell_comment_quote\fR quotes the \fIstring\fR so that it can safely be
included in a shell-style comment (the current algorithm is that a sharp
character is placed after any newlines in the string).
.Sp
This routine might be changed to accept multiple \fIstring\fR arguments
in the future. I haven't done this yet because I'm not sure if the
\&\fIstring\fRs should be joined with blanks ($") or nothing ($,). Cast
your vote today! Be sure to justify your answer.

.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Only Bourne shell quoting is supported. I'd like to add other shells
(particularly cmd.exe), but I'm not familiar with them. It would be a
big help if somebody supplied the details.
