bean-query run QUERY where QUERY contains a space

[Oon-Ee Ng]

Is the above possible? If my query looks like this:-

2021-01-01 query "Card Statement Spend"

SELECT

.....

It shows up in fava and fava can run it to get the appropriate numbers and graphs, but I can't run `bean-query "run Card Statement Spend"`. I will get the error as below:-

ERROR: Syntax error near 'statement' (at 11)

While if I try `bean-query "run 'Card Statement Spend'"`, I get instead:-

ERROR: Query 'Card Statement Spend' not found

It runs fine, I use this all the time.

$ cat b.bc
plugin "beancount.plugins.auto_accounts"

2021-05-09 * "Just a check"
  Assets:Bank -100 USD
  Expenses:Groceries

2021-01-01 query "word test" "SELECT *"

$ bean-query b.bc "run 'word test'"
   date    f   narration   position
---------- - - ------------ --------
2021-05-09 *   Just a check  -100 USD
2021-05-09 *   Just a check  100 USD

Windows shell has weird quoting behavior thus I would not be surprised
it it does not handle correctly the nested quotes. This is where the
problem may be. Oon-Ee, on which platform are you?
