[Pythonmac-SIG] Escaping commandline strings

[Chris Weisiger]

I want to sanitize some strings (e.g. escape apostrophes, spaces, etc.)
before passing them to the commandline via subprocess. Unfortunately I can't
seem to find any built-in function to do this. Am I really going to have to
write up my own sanitizer? Not that it'd be much effort, but I'd much rather
use an official function than risk forgetting something.
