	I'm not a csh expert (use a Bourne sh variant myself) but I think I can
see the problem. When you start the script, you correctly quote the string
argument that contains spaces. So the script gets it in its $argv[2]. However,
when you execute the plot3d command from within the script, you do not quote
it. Why not? I think the csh now offers the words of the strings as separate
arguments to plot3d. Quote them too (in sh you would need "" so that the 
value of $argv[2] is used).
