32 /* The native Windows CreateProcess() function interprets characters like
33 ' ', '\t', '\\', '"' (but not '<' and '>') in a special way:
34 - Space and tab are interpreted as delimiters. They are not treated as
35 delimiters if they are surrounded by double quotes: "...".
36 - Unescaped double quotes are removed from the input. Their only effect is
37 that within double quotes, space and tab are treated like normal
38 characters.
39 - Backslashes not followed by double quotes are not special.
40 - But 2*n+1 backslashes followed by a double quote become
41 n backslashes followed by a double quote (n >= 0):
42 \" -> "
43 \\\" -> \"
44 \\\\\" -> \\"
45 - '*', '?' characters may get expanded through wildcard expansion in the
46 callee: By default, in the callee, the initialization code before main()
47 takes the result of GetCommandLine(), wildcard-expands it, and passes it
48 to main(). The exceptions to this rule are:
49 - programs that inspect GetCommandLine() and ignore argv,
50 - mingw programs that have a global variable 'int _CRT_glob = 0;',
51 - Cygwin programs, when invoked from a Cygwin program.
