GROUPING ARGUMENTS WITH DOUBLE-QUOTES Normally each argument field ends at the next white space, but double-quotes may be used to create arguments with embedded space. If an argument field begins with a double- quote, then the argument isn't terminated by white space (including newlines) or a semi-colon (see below for information on semi-colons); instead it ends at the next double-quote character. The double-quotes are not included in the resulting argument. For example, the command set a "This is a single argument" will pass two arguments to set: a and This is a single argument. Within double-quotes, command substitutions, variable substitutions, and backslash substitutions still occur, as described below. If the first character of a command field is not a quote, then quotes receive no special interpretation in the parsing of that field.
