Hi All, When embedding double-quotes (") in an already double-quoted (for interpolation) backticked command, one back-quotes them.. (\") and all is well. (e.g. passing a quoted sub-command to find -exec..)
What though, if one is dealing with double quotes 3 levels deep? I've tried various combinations of double back-quoting (\\") but all that really achieves is quoting the backslash.. There's 'qx'.. but I haven't hit the nail on the head yet.. Any silver bullet on this one?
