Does not most external commands recognize paths with / in them? Which
external commands does not do that?

None of the most often used file-manipulation commands do. (See below
for a transcript). Yes, I know that NTFS in itself allows both / and \
as path separators, but, AFAIK, all native (i.e., not ported from unix)
command-line tools use / as switch.
C:\Users\zvrba>rmdir ../zvrba
Invalid switch - "zvrba".
C:\Users\zvrba>mkdir ../q
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
C:\Users\zvrba>del ../zvrba
Invalid switch - "zvrba".
C:\Users\zvrba>dir ../zvrba
Invalid switch - "zvrba".
C:\Users\zvrba>copy ../zvrba/.emacs.d/init.el .
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
C:\Users\zvrba>
