"File out category" fails for category name with embedded spaces

In a GemStone browser, selecting a category whose name has an
embedded space and attempting to file it out results in a walkback.

For example, with category "foo bar" selected, GbxBrowser
fileOutCategories generates GemStone code that includes " #(#foo bar)",
which the GemStone compiler interprets as an array with two
symbols.

Workaround

Change the category name to not contain whitespace or perform the fileout
from the class or method menus.
