   6/* Help to copy the thing properly quoted for the shell safety.
   7 * any single quote is replaced with '\'', any exclamation point
   8 * is replaced with '\!', and the whole thing is enclosed in a
   9 * single quote pair.
  10 *
  11 * For example, if you are passing the result to system() as an
  12 * argument:
  13 *
  14 * sprintf(cmd, "foobar %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1))
  15 *
  16 * would be appropriate.  If the system() is going to call ssh to
  17 * run the command on the other side:
  18 *
  19 * sprintf(cmd, "git-diff-tree %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1));
  20 * sprintf(rcmd, "ssh %s %s", sq_quote(host), sq_quote(cmd));
  21 *
  22 * Note that the above examples leak memory!  Remember to free result from
  23 * sq_quote() in a real application.
  24 *
  25 * sq_quote_buf() writes to an existing buffer of specified size; it
  26 * will return the number of characters that would have been written
  27 * excluding the final null regardless of the buffer size.
