Bug Description
btnx ignores quotation marks inside command execution strings. It splits the quoted string into separate arguments which results in commands failing, such as
su -c "/usr/bin/some_prog arg1 arg2 arg3" user_name

Temporary workaround:
Place complex commands that fail in a script and execute the script with btnx.
