Yes, I understand that. But without the quotes in -n "$(UIMAGE_NAME)"
then the name cannot contain spaces. So we do need some sort of
quoting, right?

It just seems strange to use single quotes in a Makefile variable. I
found it confusing.

I think you are saying you want to keep the single quotes in the var
declaration and drop the quotes from the cmd_fit rule. I am OK with
that, but I do think it is unusual not to quote something which might
have spaces. It may cause confusion for others, as it did for me?

Anyway, I'll send a new version with the quoting reverted.

Regards,
Simon
