I didn't read your code too carefully, so I could have missed something, but is there anything wrong with


Code:
echo 'some "command" --with options' | sh

You can have your variants, of course.


Code:
dhummy=`some "command" --with options`


Code:
fnord='some "command" --with options'
eval $fnord

etc etc.
