[kepler-users] Issue with shell script

[Christopher Brooks]

Hi Kapil,
Do you have a test case?

Are you using the Kepler devel tree?

Attached is a Kepler .xml file from the devel version of Kepler that 
uses a String Constant to call echo with multiple arguments that have 
double quotes around them.


BTW - The Exec actor comment says:

tokenizeForExec could be causing you problems.
