Shell parsing of g.proj -g output fails:

Quoting of the "name" key of the proj4 struct is needed in
general/g.proj/output.c but I don't know how to implement that properly.

Please try out attachment:g-proj-quote.diff, are there any other items

Comment (by neteler):

Works, thanks for the NRT patch :slight_smile:

According to lib/gis/units.c there might be some units like FOOT US and
