+.IX Subsection "CLASS->safe_quote ITEM"
+Quotes an item to become safe against spaces
+in shell interpolation. An item is enclosed
+in double quotes if:
+.PP
+.Vb 2
+\& \- the item contains spaces in the middle
+\& \- the item does not start with a quote
+.Ve
+.PP
+This happens to avoid shell interpolation
+problems when whitespace is present in
+directory names.
+.PP
+This method uses \f(CW\*(C`commands_quote\*(C'\fR to determine
+the correct quote. If \f(CW\*(C`commands_quote\*(C'\fR is
+a space, no quoting will take place.
+.PP
+if it starts and ends with the same quote character: leave it as it is
+.PP
+if it contains no whitespace: leave it as it is
+.PP
+if it contains whitespace, then
+.PP
+if it contains quotes: better leave it as it is
+.PP
+else: quote it with the correct quote type for the box we're on
