Well there's a bit of a double-whammy going on here. There's
a long-unfixed bug which doesn't quote parameters to
subprocess under Windows when shell=True:
http://bugs.python.org/issue2304
but in fact you don't need to set shell=True to run a batch
file anyway:
import subprocess
open ("t(o.bat", "w").write ("echo we are here\n")
subprocess.call (["t(o.bat"])
