Description:
The install_repo.bat script in version 1.0 builds up its argument word by word
and then puts double quotes around the value thereby built up wherever it is
used. However, this implementation makes using the script kind of weird. On
Windows I have to quote the command anyway if it contains spaces, e.g.,
"%MAVEN_HOME%\bin\install_repo.bat"
and I would expect to have to quote its argument for similar reasons. But as
it stands now, install_repo.bat _requires_ the following quoting syntax if both
MAVEN_HOME and HOME (or HOMEPATH) contain spaces:
"%MAVEN_HOME%\bin\install_repo.bat" %HOME%\.maven\repository
Note the inconsistency in quoting.
The Windows batch language doesn't treat quotes the way most shells do; the
quotes are literally part of the string rather than just a meta-character that
signifies that contained whitespace is literal rather than a command or
argument separator. The syntax %~1 can be used to produce a non-quoted and
fully-path-expanced version of whatever argument %1 was, at least in more
recent versions of Windows (2000, XP, 2003). No guarantees that this feature
is present in Windows 9x....
