When I use pdksh to expand the name of a file with spaces or other
shell metachars in it, the filename is expanded without escaping the
metacharacters.
On cygwin:
$ echo $KSH_VERSION
@(#)PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
$ touch 'now & later'
$ ls now # hit [Tab]
$ ls now & later
On NetBSD:
$ echo $KSH_VERSION
@(#)PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
$ touch 'now & later'
$ ls now # hit [Tab]
$ ls now\ \&\ later
The pdksh version strings are identical.
