Hey, The sq_quote_buf_pretty() function does not emit anything when the incoming string is empty, but the function is to accumulate command line arguments, properly quoted as necessary, and the right way to add an argument that is an empty string is to show it quoted, i.e. ''. Looking forward to your review. Cheers!
