I have a request regarding this thread.
Please be clarify when to strip spaces, during command line argument
processing, which I believe it does or during the prompt if not
specified on command line, which I believe it doesn't. (Mind you I
didn't verify, but you get the idea.)
Thanks,
Jeremy

- why you need spaces _before_ label?
I don need them. But the fact is that if one exist in a bach file, it
will be included in the variable and needed for further test. And old
baches work. If you remove it, it will stop working.
- do you understand that leading spaces _will_ mislead users?
It would be great it it was like this from the begining. But it was not.
chenge it now is worse only because of compatibility. And DOS *is* about
compatibility :)
