Subject: Handling of quotes by start-process
Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2024 17:37:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h6gyjn04.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I'm launching a process via the (valid) command below

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
nix-shell -p sbcl --run 'sbcl --dynamic-space-size 3072'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

via

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(start-process "test" (get-buffer-create "test") "nix-shell" "-p" "sbcl" "--run" "'sbcl --dynamic-space-size 3072'")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and it returns the error below:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
/tmp/nix-shell-13722-0/rc: line 3: sbcl --dynamic-space-size 3072: command not found

Process test<1> exited abnormally with code 127
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is this a bug or am I missing something?  Thanks.
