[OT] Windows cmd parsing

Hi,

If anyone has access to the Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0
(I have 2k3 and XP, so I know its working), can you do the
following:

Open cmd.exe
C:> set "FOO=FOO BAR"
C:> echo %FOO%

And give me the output?
The problem is that I'm not sure how pre-XP handles
the SET directive is there is a single quoted param containing '='


Thanks,
Mladen.

Excellent, so it works on 2K as well!

Thanks,
