Thanks. I have 2 requests and a question. The requests are:
. Please leave the `ms-dos' quoting as it was before. (Your research
and blog are not valid for the MS-DOS, a.k.a. DJGPP, build of
Emacs, which uses its own private way of passing and decoding
command lines, bypassing MS runtime and OS facilities. The
problems you mention in your blog do not exist in the MS-DOS
build.) Please make the new quoting method effective for the
`windows-nt' case alone.
. Please install this only on the trunk. The emacs-23 branch should
not be destabilized by such experiments at this time.
My question is this: will cmdproxy need any changes to support this
new kind of quoting, or does it already have everything that it needs?
Thanks again for working on this.
