I want to pipe file names to other programs, but they all choke when the names contain spaces.

Let's say I have a file called.

foo bar

How can I get find to return the correct name?

Obviously I want:

foo\ bar

or:

"foo bar"

EDIT: I don't want to go through xargs, I want to get a correctly formatted string out of find so that I can pipe the string of file names directly to another program.
