/en-us/ntcmds_shelloverview.mspx?mfr=true , quoting: "You can use most characters as variable values, including white space. If you use the special characters <, >, |, &, or ^, you must precede them with the escape character (^) or quotation marks." - So all special characters will be replaced with "^<char>".
I think you are not entirely correct here. What the quote means is that if you want foo&bar, you should do either "foo&bar" or foo^&bar - not replace & with "^&".
