Follow-up Comment #2, bug #13303 (project findutils):
I propose the attached patch (against current CVS). Please try it out and
let me know if you're happy with the result.
The patch affects -print, -fprint, -fprintf, -printf. It does not affect
-ok, -okdir or -print0. The -ls and -fls actions already had escaping.
The escape style for -print and friends is different to that used by -ls.
This is explained in the documentation, which is also patched. Please let
me know how intelligible you find the (updated) documentation.
One could argue that -ok and -okdir should be fixed. It's not immediately
obvious what the best way of doing that is.
Thanks.
