b) Just don't use quotes. DOS might just use everything after the =
sign, regardless of spaces.
Correct. The various current command line shells (based in part on DOS,
but never quite actually DOS anymore) do not quote variable assignments.
(Something of a side note, but *nix shells handle quotes at the shell
level, but DOS-based ones require applications to handle quotes
themselves. This is one of the few times that the DOS-based approach is
more flexible, but harder to code, which is more often the *nix philosophy.)
