You almost got it right. You need to escape each surrounding ". Instead of escaping a space, windows requires you to wrap the string in quotes.
But vim interprets the quote as a comment. So you need to escape the double quote. You also need a backslash to escape the space.
I'm using the following definitions to run external cygwin related executables from win32-gvim: http://code.google.com/p/lh-vim/source/browse/system-tools/trunk/plugin/system_utils.vim#467 (the other shell options are also quite important).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
