separate_arguments
------------------
Parse space-separated arguments into a semicolon-separated list.
::
separate_arguments(<var> <UNIX|WINDOWS>_COMMAND "<args>")
Parses a unix- or windows-style command-line string "<args>" and
stores a semicolon-separated list of the arguments in ``<var>``. The
entire command line must be given in one "<args>" argument.
The ``UNIX_COMMAND`` mode separates arguments by unquoted whitespace. It
recognizes both single-quote and double-quote pairs. A backslash
escapes the next literal character (``\"`` is ``"``); there are no special
escapes (``\n`` is just ``n``).
The ``WINDOWS_COMMAND`` mode parses a windows command-line using the same
syntax the runtime library uses to construct argv at startup. It
separates arguments by whitespace that is not double-quoted.
Backslashes are literal unless they precede double-quotes. See the
MSDN article `Parsing C Command-Line Arguments`_ for details.

::
separate_arguments(<var>)
Convert the value of ``<var>`` to a semi-colon separated list. All
spaces are replaced with ';'. This helps with generating command
lines.
