I want to do something like
(setq sts (apply 'call-process prog nil (current-buffer) t
args))
where prog="perl.exe" and the list args may contain things like
file=some-file-name.txt
The file name above may contain spaces. Is there a standard way in Emacs
to quote the file name for this? I believe it would look different on
different OS:es.
