I am trying to auto tweet some values from the database  to my twitter account every 5 min  and i am using the tsystem to  the same

"curl -u user:pswd -d status="+(String)globalMap.get("cur_post")+" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml"

this works when the text i want to tweet( (String)globalMap.get("cur_post") ) is just a string like :"Testing_1_2_3"
but if my (String)globalMap.get("cur_post") or tweet has spaces in  it  "Testing 1 2 3" then it tweets only the first word of my text .i.e Testing

i tried all the following
"curl -u user:pswd -d status=Testing 1 2 3 http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml"
tweets just : Testing
"curl -u user:pswd -d status=\"Testing 1 2 3\" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml"
tweets just : "Testing
"curl -u user:pswd -d status=\'Testing 1 2 3\' http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml"
tweets just : 'Testing

does not work either and i see the following error

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host '1'

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host '2'

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host '3"''
