is there a real escape "quoting" style for ls?

[Harald Dunkel]

Hi folks,

How can I tell ls to create a *real* escape shell style without quotes?
A file name like

        A Knight's Tale: Part 2

should be shown as

        A\ Knight\'s\ Tale\:\ Part\ 2

Similar to bash's command line completion.

I had hoped for QUOTING_STYLE=escape, but it just gives me

        A\ Knight's\ Tale:\ Part\ 2

Its obvious that

        touch A\ Knight's\ Tale:\ Part\ 2

doesn't work for bash, which means that the current implementation
of the "escape" quoting style is not really helpful.


Every helpful comment is highly appreciated
