CreateProcess does that too:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/createprocess.asp


It doesn't follow the ambiguous file name searching for CreateProcess.
I just re-read the cmd.exe help output and realized that it spells out
the logic for quotes when /c is specified. My patch was overarching in
also affecting commands entered at the command prompt; it should only
affect the command line passed in as an argument with the /c flag.

It could probably be fixed by creating a fake notepad.exe in C:\Windows
or C:\Windows\system32 instead of duplicating some of the work of
CreateProcess.


A fake notepad.exe is currently created in c:\windows\system32. I
don't think there's duplication of CreateProcess because CreateProcess
considers the filename of the executable to be the first quoted term
in the commandline. In contrast, cmd.exe also considers the first
space-separated word of that quoted string as the filename of the
executable when the entire quoted term is not an executable.

wcmd currently gives a 'File not found' error for the command:
`./wine wcmd /c "notepad test.txt"` because it only tries to execute the
program "notepad text.txt". In XP, cmd.exe starts notepad.exe with 
test.txt as

its argument upon not finding a "notepad text.txt" executable.
