问题
I'm trying to use applescript to run a command line process. A simplified version of the Applescript looks like this
do shell script "echo bwfmetaedit --INAM=\"name\" --IART=\"artist\" --ICRD=\"date\" /desktop/filepath.wav"
with the expected result being
bwfmetaedit --INAM="name" --IART="artist" --ICRD="date" /desktop/filepath.wav
If I were to just to run that command in Terminal, I get the correct output. However with applescript I get the following result. Note the missing double quotes around the values.
"bwfmetaedit --INAM=name --IART=artist --ICRD=date /desktop/filepath.wav"
What am I missing here? I need the double quotes around the values or else the command wont run properly.
Thanks, Morgan

Try:
do shell script "echo bwfmetaedit --INAM=\\\"name\\\" --IART=\\\"artist\\\" --ICRD=\\\"date\\\" /desktop/filepath.wav"

The quotes are being passed properly, it’s just that the shell doesn’t echo them because they are part of the shell syntax.
If you try this AppleScript that prints each argument on its own line:
do shell script "sh -c 'for F in \"${@}\"; do echo \"${F}\"; done' \"${0}\" echo bwfmetaedit --INAM=\"name with spaces\" --IART=\"artist with spaces\" --ICRD=\"date with spaces\" /desktop/filepath.wav"
Then you will see that the output is:
"echo
bwfmetaedit
--INAM=name with spaces
--IART=artist with spaces
--ICRD=date with spaces
/desktop/filepath.wav"
Each argument passed to echo is parsed properly as if it were quoted. The quotation marks are at the beginning and end because it is an AppleScript string with embedded newlines.

For me my challenge was
osascript -e 'tell application "Simulator" to quit'
So my solution was
do shell script osascript -e 'tell application \"Simulator\" to quit'"
You have to escape before the first double-quote and then again before it. Thanks for tips everyone!

To call this inside code, try this
set myStr to "/bin/echo Hello here is \\\"Quoted String\\\"
The do script call will write it with double quote(s).
do script myStr in front window
