Hi Paul,

Can you give us an example of what commandline_BACON really looks like 
once all the variables are evaluated (ie replaced by the string they 
code for)?
Did you try to run directly this commandline_BACON in  a unix terminal 
to see what it gives?
You might have in commandline_BACON some characters that have special 
meaning for the shell (like "&", "*", ">").
