But this outputs also quotes. Unfortunately, I don't know any other legal
way to mask special characters. :(

1) The easy way is to get send.com from
http://bigfoot.com/~batfiles/main/download.htm
then change your command to
SEND my text $b more my text myfile.txt

2) See question (38) in Timo Salmi's fine batch programming FAQ, which
shows several other methods.
ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/link/tsbat.zip

3) If the text to be written will never change you can use DEBUG:

echo e 100 my text 7C more my text temp
echo rcx 14 temp
echo n newfile.txt temp
echo w temp
echo q temp
debug temp
del temp
type newfile.txt

(in that batch file, 7C is | and 14 is the hexadecimal number of
bytes to be written as newfile.txt (20 decimal)).

 With external utilities you may do many things - and if you get
compiler/interpreter of unversal language like BASIC or C, you may do
(almost) anything. But I mean standard ways in shell language, which in
MS-DOS is dumb (up to void).
