Internal command parsing and processing is nowhere near as extensive as in a 
real shell. So try running in external shell (prepend ">" character to your 
alias).

Svn code now includes experimental %e %%e %E %%E if E2_BADQUOTES is defined. 
These macros are intended to work like corresponding f macros, but with 
escaping of embedded char(s) which match the quotes. If this turns out to work 
properly, the f macros should probably be changed to work like this, and the e 
macros go away again.
