$FILES is created in this loop:
while read line; do
FILES+="${line/ /\ }"
done
So when I input the files: Photo 119.jpg and Photo 136.jpg
echo $FILES
Photo\ 119.jpg Photo\ 136.jpg
It is more that when the command is run instead of a set space delimitated file names there are single quotes around the list of files and so the command thinks they are all one file.
I noticed a similar thread that suggested doing:
echo $(command) | sh
Which did work.
