On that topic, I feel that Emacs is missing a solid, standard thing like python's shlex. split-string-and-unquote is entirely inadequate to split shell commands (it's a great tool, but isn't a mistake to use it on user-supplied command lines?):
(split-string-and-unquote "python -c 'print \"a\"'")
⇒ ("python" "-c" "'print" "a" "'")
John's eshell has such parsing features, but I've never seen them used in other packages; is there a good reason?
Cheers,
Clément.
