This problem is still present in Emacs 28:
(interactive (list (if current-prefix-arg
(read-string "Run lisp: " inferior-lisp-program)
inferior-lisp-program)))
(if (not (comint-check-proc "*inferior-lisp*"))
(let ((cmdlist (split-string cmd)))
(set-buffer (apply (function make-comint)
"inferior-lisp" (car cmdlist) nil (cdr cmdlist)))
(inferior-lisp-mode)))
The only way this could work is that if we either split the prompt into
two parts (one for the command and one for the options), or that we
require that the user quotes the spaces, and then use a splitting
function that's aware of that. So the user would have to type
"D:/More Program Files (x86)/clisp-2.49/clisp.exe" -some -option
or the like.
I thought Emacs had a shell-syntax-aware splitting function (that would
tokenise that into a list of three items), but I can't find it now...
anybody remember what it's called (if we do have it)? I.e.,
(that-func "\"foo bar\" zot") => ("foo bar" "zot")
and
(that-func "foo\\ bar zot") => ("foo bar" "zot")
