[mtasc] Bug: Spaces in classpath on OS X

[Daniel Wabyick]

One thing I have noted on OSX, at least when I used mtasc 1.04 and ASDT 
0.0.7  - . If you cut-and-paste the command-line output from the MTASC 
panel in Eclipse and run it in a bash Terminal window, mtasc compiles it 
correctly. Therefore, I think its a matter of how Java is passing the 
cmdLine string to Runtime.exec(). 

I wonder if it would help to escape spaces *within* each classpath 
entry? I'll have to try that when I get home.
