Summary	0000250: Fix pathname processing error (missing quotes) in basename example
Description	The given example presumes that "$1" is a pathname that does not include any characters in IFS (usually newline, tab, space). However, pathnames can include any character except \0. The given text explains that the example is only given specific input, but I believe highlighted examples should be robust enough to correctly process any value of $1. After all, people are likely to copy examples from the specification.
Desired Action	Change: c99 $(dirname "$1")/$(basename "$1" .c).c mv a.out $(basename "$1" .c) to: c99 "$(dirname "$1")/$(basename "$1" .c).c" mv a.out "$(basename "$1" .c)"
Tags	No tags attached.
