In the spirit of XML, wouldn't it be reasonable to expect that we could
write:
<exec program="mkdir" commandline=""c:\temp\test 1""/>
That should ofcourse be possible too, but I'd advise against using the
commandline attribute and use the nested <arg> elements instead.
You can use the "line" attribute of the <arg> element if you want to control
quoting yourself. For example :
<exec program="mkdir">
<arg line=""c:\temp\test 1""/>
</exec>
This is only available in yesterday's nightly build (if I'm not mistaken).
Hope this helps,
Gert
