>From the manual's description of "batch" (in functions.html):

          Note: the argument must follow Jess' rules for valid atoms
          or strings. On UNIX systems, this presents no particular
          problems, but Win32 filenames may need special treatment. In
          particular: pathnames should use either '\\' (double
          backslash) or '/' (forward slash) instead of '\' (single
          backslash) as directory separators; and pathnames which
          include a colon (':') or a space character (' ') <i>must</i>
          be enclosed in double quotes.
