Directories with spaces break things

[akx]

There's a distinct lack of argument quoting in the shell scripts, so arguments with spaces or e.g. globbing characters like ? or * break things. Of course, users probably shouldn't use spaces in these arguments, but the programs also preferably shouldn't break...

Repro:

$ mkdir "foo bar"
$ cd "foo bar"
$ echo tqdm > requirements.txt
$ mkdir "bar foo"
$ pip-containerize new --slim --prefix "bar foo" requirements.txt

Very valid point, but probably a wontfix at least for now due to a lack of time. Due to the poor craftsmanship of the original code 😅 , there are a bunch of construct like var=($( which cant be fixed automatically and needs manual intervention.
But I'll leave this open for now in case I get around to it.

No worries. For my experiment, I ended up using https://github.com/DeiC-HPC/cotainr/ instead anyway (and contributing a couple of PRs that way too...).
