[Condor-users] problem with single quote in arguments variable

["Philippe Piot" <philippe.piot@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

 I have some trouble using the arguments variable in the
command file for condor_submit.

 I need to run a program RunScript with argument that
contains single quote in it as follows:

./RunScript -rootname optInA-000000 -tagList 'pulse spot E1 phase B1
B3' -valueList '0.00080000000000000004 0.75 40.0 5.0 0.12
-0.20000000000000001'

I initially had in my command file
executable                = ./RunScript
arguments                 = -rootname optInA-000000 -tagList 'pulse
spot E1 phase B1 B3' -valueList '0.00080000000000000004 0.75 40.0 5.0
0.12 -0.20000000000000001'

 This did not work. I replaced my single quote with two single quotes
'' and also tried with \' but none of this works (along with
MANY other things).

  Any suggestion would be appreciated. I am using Linux (Fedora 6).
Thanks a lot!
