There is no correct version for Windows. Using double-quotes is as
good as one can get. Note that using double quotes for the
command-part of a qs'd shell command requires wrapping the whole
command string into yet another pair of double quotes. I'm not making
this up.  It's just impossible to get this right, so I recommend
to leave the Windows parts as it is.
