ARGH!  Not another UNIX convert!  You're absolutely right, MS-DOS stinks ...
now go back to UNIX.  We already know the limits of DOS!  Anyhow, I am aware
of the problems the "double" backslash caused by MS-DOS C source ... yes it's
a pain.  My solution:  Get used to it.  This is not UNIX, and the only way to
do many things is incredibly hard, incompatible and disastrous.  You'd
probably have to go change COMMAND.COM itself ... DO NOT DO IT!  Please just
get used to this crappy operating system or go back to unix.  It's not good to
give ideas to MS-DOS users.  

I hear it now, "But he says in unix he can ..."
