Does freedos support Long File Names? If it doesn't, then no paths can
contain spaces and the quotes are not necessary (nor can the command
interpreter -- COMMAND.COM, maybe -- be expected to support them).
OTOH, if freedos _does_ support Long File Names, then its command
interpreter ought to accept quoted paths -- but maybe some startup
setting is needed for that?
Best regards,
Tony.
