[WebDNA] bug in sending & character to DOS

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 104721
interpreted = N
texte = This is probably a bug nobody cares about, but I can't seem to pass the & character to DOS. When I try something like this: [dos]curl -d "apiKey=key&token=token" -k https://rpxnow.com/api/v2/auth_info[/dos] The command sent to DOS is >curl -d "apiKey=keytoken=token" -k https://rpxnow.com/api/v2/auth_info Notice the & sign is missing. So this basically makes using curl not possible in this way from Windows. I tried a bunch of other tests and no matter what I can't get the & character to be sent to DOS, even in %26 format. I even tried using variables instead of directly keying in the text into the DOS command. Anybody else find this bug? It's important to me because curl will fetch a page in less than a second whereas TCPconnect takes well over 5 seconds. Thanks, Olin Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
