panel adds backslash to Launcher command



Hi there,

I am slowly becoming more familiar with Gnome after only installing it
yesterday. I'm runing fvwm2 as my wm. I installed a Launcher on the
panel with the following properties:

Name: Netscape
Comment: Mozilla
Command: WarpToOrRun Netscape* netscape
Type: Application

The command WarpToOrRun is a shell script I wrote which warps to a
window of name $1 if it exists, if not it executes $2. Anyhow, it works
fine after entering it, but when I quit panel and start it up again and
then look at the netscape launcher, the Command line looks like:

Command: WarpToOrRun\ Netscape*\ netscape

and this doesn't exec right; it tries to exec the whole string as one
argument. Every subsequent time I quit and restart panel it adds another
backslash.  Anyhow, I'm pretty sure this is a bug.
