[wplug] Handling spaces in file names

Hello all.
Simple UNIX scripting question:
I want to do this:
wc `find . -name *.java`
on a large repository to get total number of lines of code. But some of
the files or directories have spaces which 'wc' doesn't like. So, do I
have to write up a script to do this or is there some way I can get 'find'
to print the file names with the spaces escaped? (ie- "My\ Documents"
instead of "My Documents")
Thanks for any suggestions.
