Summary: xffm fails on directories which include spaces
Description:
If you create a directory with a space in it and then try to run a program
by double clicking it, it fails.
e.g. create "foo bar" and put foo.sh in it and try to run it you'll see:
xterm: Can't execvp /home/huggie/foo: No such file or directory
Indeed this is a security bug as if /home/huggie/foo *does* exist then it
will be executed.
Looks like bad quoting to me.
