No, IMHO, because such quoting is OS specific. For example, the quoting for
UNIX and Windows in this context are different. Furthermore, given the
vagaries of the POSIX shell standard I am skeptical that either of the
projects you linked to correctly manipulates such strings in every case.

It would help if you provided a concrete example of the problem you need
help with.
