Btw., no need to use a backslash here.  Not even sure whether this
name would be subject to backslash escape interpretation (i. e.,
whether \t would be a TAB etc.), but MS-DOS starting with DOS version
2 can interpret forward slashes as directory separators without
problems.  Makes your program easier portable in case you need to give
it to anyone on another platform some day.

So the DOS and Windows internal syscalls can handle foo/bar, it's
always only been command.com (now cmd.exe) that could not handle it.
