Here is a simple script demonstrating the issue:
# --- program.py ---
import sys
print "argv:", sys.argv
print ' '.join(sys.argv[1:])
I haven't tested it on Windows, but on Linux it behaves as you describe (and
as Linux users will expect):
[steve@ando ~]$ python program.py column1=2174 and column2='R'
argv: ['program.py', 'column1=2174', 'and', 'column2=R']
column1=2174 and column2=R
[snip]
On Windows:
py.exe program.py column1=2174 and column2='R'
gives:
argv: ['program.py', 'column1=2174', 'and', "column2='R'"]
column1=2174 and column2='R'
and:
py.exe program.py column1=2174 and column2="R"
gives:
argv: ['program.py', 'column1=2174', 'and', 'column2=R']
column1=2174 and column2=R
