That's not exactly what I meant. I should have said:
What remains to do now is to find all cases where strange file
names (containing spaces or quotes for example) create problems
_due_to_the_way_we_invoke_them_
What happens is that there are many places where QuoteName should be
invoked and is not. Finding them is not very difficult: create a file
with spaces and quotes in name, and see what happens when you try to
run latex, xdvi, gs, tth, fax stuff, etc.
