This is not true under Windows. There the program doesn't get a list of parameters, but a "command line" and has to parse it itself. Which is usualy done by calling some function from C runtime libraries. It is done for you automaticaly, but it is within the program, not outside. BTW, it is possible to access the raw command line even after it was parsed. Which is what G.pm does.
