Title:
  see: can't handle files with spaces in name

Status in mime-support package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  'see' command can't open files if they contains spaces in their name -
  they are not escaped and so it will try to open several files with
  incorrect names.

  How to reproduce:
  $ touch 'test test.pdf'
  $ see 'test test.pdf'

  Result: it will open atril twice with 'Error opening file: No such
  file or directory' message.

  Also, if filename will contain at least one bracket everything will
  work fine, eg:

  $ touch 'test test[.pdf'
  $ see 'test test[.pdf'

  That command will open only one instance of atril.

  Reproduced in 'mime-support 3.54ubuntu1.1'.
