problem with command line
i have a command line that looks like this:
my_command -a -b -c -d"foo bar" "./run this" param1 param2

I'm using getopt to pharse parameters -a -b -c -d.
after that i would like to execute "./run this" param1 param1 (which is places after --) but I'm loosing quotas around ./run this. How can i do this?

Here's the code:

Code:
#zczytanie parametrów
set +e
argumenty=$(getopt -o tmsdi:f:c: -- "$@")
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
    wyswietl_pomoc
fi
set -e

#przejście po argumentach i ustawienie odpowiednich flag
eval set -- "$argumenty"
for i
do
    case "$i"
    in
	-t)
	    czy_czas=$PRAWDA
	    shift;;
	-m)
	    czy_pamiec=$PRAWDA
	    shift;;
	-s)
	    czy_ogolne=$PRAWDA
	    shift;;
	-d)
	    czy_szczegolowe=$PRAWDA
	    shift;;
	-i)
	    bylo_co_jaki_czas=$PRAWDA
	    co_jaki_czas=$2
	    shift;shift;;
	-f)
	    format_wypisywania=$2
	    shift;shift;;
	-c)
	    ile_razy=$2
	    shift;shift;;
	--) shift; break;;
    esac
done

getopt

getopt(1)						      General Commands Manual							 getopt(1)

Name
       getopt - parse command options

Syntax
       set - - getopt optstring $*

Description
       The  command  breaks  up  options in command lines for easy parsing by Shell procedures and checks for legal options.  The optstring option
       letters are recognized if a letter is followed by a colon, the option expects an argument which may or may not  be  separated  from  it	by
       white space.  For further information, see

       The special option, specified by two minus signs (- -), delimits the end of the options.  If the delimiters are used explicitly, recognizes
       it; otherwise, generates it.  In either case, places the delimiter at the end of the options.  The positional parameters ($1 $2 ...) of the
       shell  are reset so that each option is preceded by a single minus sign (-) and is in its own positional parameter; each option argument is
       also parsed into its own positional parameter.

Examples
       The following code fragment shows how you can process the arguments for a command that can take the options a or b, as well as  the  option
       o, which requires an argument:
       #!/bin/sh5
       set -- getopt abo: $*
       if [ $? != 0 ]
       then
	    echo $USAGE
	    exit 2
       fi
       for i in $*
       do
	    case $i in
	    -a | -b)  FLAG=$i; shift;;
	    -o)  OARG=$2; shift 2;;
	    --)  shift; break;;
	    esac
       done
       This code accepts any of the following as equivalent:
       cmd -aoarg file file
       cmd -a -o arg file file
       cmd -oarg -a file file
       cmd -a -oarg -- file file

Diagnostics
       The command prints an error message on the standard error when it encounters an option letter not included in optstring.
