[Gambas-user] ec statement with parameters containing spaces

[John Rose]

I have this code:
     Print "mplex", "-f 8", "-o " & "'" & sCombinedPath & "'", "'" & 
sVideoPath & "'", "'" & sAudioPath & "'"
     Exec ["mplex", "-f 8", "-o " & "'" & sCombinedPath & "'", "'" & 
sVideoPath & "'", "'" & sAudioPath & "'"] To sOutput
I'm using the single quotes since they are required when entering the 
equivalent commands in a Terminal e.g. mplex   -f 8    -o 
'/home/john/Videos/q.mpg'    '/home/john/Videos/The Story of Science_ 
Power, Proof____20140621_2000.m2v' '/home/john/Videos/The Story of 
Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.mp2'

The Print statement shows (at runtime):
mplex   -f 8    -o '/home/john/Videos/q.mpg' '/home/john/Videos/The 
Story of Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.m2v'     
'/home/john/Videos/The Story of Science_ Power, Proof____20140621_2000.mp2'
i.e. the exact equivalent of the working command when entered in a Terminal.

However, the Exec statement does nothing at runtime. There is no 
feedback on why by Gambas. The above sOutput variable has the value "". 
What I am doing wrong?
