# XXX the command-line syntax for Borland C++ is a bit wonky;
# certain filenames are jammed together in one big string, but
# comma-delimited. This doesn't mesh too well with the
# Unix-centric attitude (with a DOS/Windows quoting hack) of
# 'spawn()', so constructing the argument list is a bit
# awkward. Note that doing the obvious thing and jamming all
# the filenames and commas into one argument would be wrong,
# because 'spawn()' would quote any filenames with spaces in
# them. Arghghh!. Apparently it works fine as coded...
