+/*
+   This function is mainly used under Windows (as under Unix we always get the
+   command line arguments as agrc/argv anyhow) and so it tries to handle the
+   Windows path names (separated by backslashes) correctly. For this it only
+   considers that a backslash may be used to escape another backslash (but
+   normally this is _not_ needed) or a quote but nothing else.
+
+   In particular, to pass a single argument containing a space to the program
+   it should be quoted:
+   
+   myprog.exe foo bar       -> argc = 3, argv[1] = "foo", argv[2] = "bar"
+   myprog.exe "foo bar"     -> argc = 2, argv[1] = "foo bar"
+
+   To pass an argument containing spaces and quotes, the latter should be
+   escaped with a backslash:
+
+   myprog.exe "foo \"bar\"" -> argc = 2, argv[1] = "foo "bar""
+
+   This hopefully matches the conventions used by Explorer/command line
+   interpreter under Windows. If not, this function should be fixed.
