Detailed Description

Generate and return a path quoted with single quotation marks where all instances of single quotes \(\ms{'}\) within the path are replaced with \(\ms{'\''}\).

POSIX-style paths can contain almost any character including single or double quotation marks.
To simplify the task and minimize the risks, this procedure quotes all input POSIX style paths with single quotation marks.
Enclosing the path with single quotation marks requires escaping any existing instances of single quotes within the path.
This is done by replacing all instances of \(\ms{'}\) within the path are replaced with \(\ms{'\''}\).

Optionally, if a set of wildcard characters are also specified, all instances of such characters identified within the specified path are properly excluded from the quotations, such that the resulting output path can be used as pattern for globing.

Parameters

[in]

path

: The input scalar character of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., SK, SKA, SKD , or SKU) containing the path to be enclosed with quotation marks.

Returns

pathVerbatim : The output allocatable scalar of type character of the same kind as path containing the modified input path enclosed with single quotation marks where all instances of single quotation marks within the path are escaped.
Wildcard characters, if any are present, are not quoted via single quotation marks.

Possible calling interfaces ⛓

use pm_sysPath, only: getPathVerbatimPosix
 
pathVerbatim = getPathVerbatimPosix(path)

Warning

The pure procedure(s) documented herein become impure when the ParaMonte library is compiled with preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
By default, these procedures are pure in release build and impure in debug and testing builds. The impurity is caused by the call to procedures whose purity depends on the library build configuration.
