Now I'm really confused. Brian seemed to indicate that the POSIX rules were
followed, but you're indicating that the Windows command line parsing rules
are followed. So I assume the reality is that it is actually some mix of the two.
Is the effective parsing logic implemented by Cygwin documented anywhere?

Thanks,
