greetings

I am getting an error and I don't know how to get around it.

I need to set an Access List on OSX server like this;

chmod +a "drfoo allow  
list,add_file,search,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,write 
attr,readextattr,writeextattr,readsecurity,writesecurity,chown,file_inhe 
rit,directory_inherit" drfoo

In my script, I don't know how to handle the quotes " "'s

typically i would
do shell script " something "
in this case I have
do shell script " " <--- thats not right. how can iget around this ?
