[gradsusr] passing whitespace from bash to grasds run

[Joey Woodson]

I don't have much experience with bash scripts, but usually there's a way to escape out quotes within quotes... Try encasing the inner variables with \" , as in grads -lbxc "run \"foo bar\" \"barfoofoo el farboo\"". Again, not sure if this will work.
