Accessing bundle unix calls

[RGould8 at aol.com]

I'm trying to wrap a unix file within a Revolution app and then execute it 
within the program on a later screen.   This works, except if the user puts the 
application in a folder that has spaces in it.   My unix file is called 
"PPPSetup", and it accepts parameters (username/password).   Here's what I've got so 
far:

 put the defaultfolder & "/PPPoE_Connector.app/Contents/Resources/PPPSetup e 
" & username & " " & password into bundlepath

put shell(bundlepath) into errorcode


The problem is that if the default folder contains a space, then the unix 
call thinks that everything after that space is a parameter, and fails.   I tried 
putting it all in quotes like this:

 put quote & the defaultfolder & 
"/PPPoE_Connector.app/Contents/Resources/PPPSetup e " & username & " " & password & quote into bundlepath

but that also failed - - - is there another way?
