[Condor-users] parsing arguments with whitespaces

[Jose Caballero <jcaballero.hep@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have a bash script like this one  [1].
It works perfectly from the command line [2].
However, if I submit it with condor-G, with a file like [3], I get this error message [4].

I have tried with double quotes, single qoutes, scaping qoutes, etc. No luck. 
Any tip or advice will be more than welcome. 

Thank a lot in advance.
Jose
