hook not working with emacs #86

i feel like i must be doing something wrong here, but i can't figure out what. i have a custom template i made that injects itself into an autothemer theme file. that part works perfectly, and emacs has no issues with the generated theme.

the problem is that the hook just... isn't working. here's its whole section in the config.toml file:

[[items]]
file = "~/.config/emacs/flavours-theme.el"
template = "emacs"
subtemplate = "custom"
start = ";; Start Flavours"
end = ";; End Flavours"
hook = "emacsclient -e '(my/load-theme)'"

i was having some minor problems with the emacs daemon having trouble starting yesterday, but it seems fine now. the thing that's tripping me up about this is that the same exact command works fine when i execute it manually in a terminal. and if i put a different command there - for example, to open a new terminal - it too does its job! i've also tried changing the shell to bash and even zsh - nothing.

i used to use pywal/wgptk, with a wrapper to execute a custom script afterwards. the same command was in there (i actually created the function for that purpose) and i had no problems with it, so i really don't get what's going wrong here.

There is probably some problem with multiple nesting levels of quotes. Single quotes don't work either for me, but escaped double quotes do:

hook = "emacsclient --eval \"(base16-set-theme)\""

(I had the same symptoms with base16-universal-manager, but there the solution was to completely remove the quotes.)
