Problems processing file list

[Misbah Qidwai]

Hi,

I need help trying to process a file list that contains filenames which 
have escaped-spaces in the filename.  I have looked around using search 
engines, but have not had much luck.  Can someone with some experience/code 
please make some suggestions?  I am currently using the following piece of 
code that I am having trouble with:

files=`ls -b .`
for file in $files
do
  dosomeworkwith $file
done

Thanks!
