#  The following procedures are useful for writing Icon programs that
#  generate shell commands.  Certain characters cannot appear in the
#  open in strings that are to be interpreted as "words" by command
#  shells.  This family of procedures assists in quoting such strings so
#  that they will be interpreted as single words.  Quoting characters
#  are applied only if necessary -- if strings need no quoting they are
#  returned unchanged.
#
#  shquote(s1, s2, ..., sN) :  s -- Produces a string of words s1, s2,
#  ..., sN that are properly separated and quoted for the Bourne Shell
#  (sh).
#
#  cshquote(s1, s2, ..., sN) :  s -- Produces a string of words s1, s2, ..., sN 
#  that are properly separated and quoted for the C-Shell (csh).
#
#  mpwquote(s1, s2, ..., sN) :  s -- Produces a string of words s1, s2,
#  ..., sN that are properly separated and quoted for the Macintosh
#  Programmer's Workshop shell (MPW Shell).
#
#  dequote(s1,s2) : s3 -- Produces the UNIX-style command line word s1
#  with any quoting characters removed. s2 is the escape character
#  required by the shell (s2 defaults the the usual UNIX escape
#  character, the backslash "\\").
