It's not Microsoft, you would experience the same problems under any Unix I know of. At least the bash treats quotes as special characters, so does afaik the sh and a couple of other shells in the Unixverse. You will also need to escape blanks and depending on the shell a number of other special characters (like for example the pipe).
