A few things to note:
- The "rest" arguments to call-process-shell-command are deprecated.
I.e. you should use
(call-process-shell-command
"cmd.exe /c \"c:/path with space/foo-bar.bat\" \"x y\"" nil t t)
instead (which is equivalent anyway, and I think it's more honest
since it doesn't make it seem like those rest args are correctly
separated).
- Why not use call-process instead (since you don't actually use the
"shell-command" part, really)?
Something like either
(call-process "cmd.exe" nil t t
"/c" "\"c:/path with space/foo-bar.bat\" \"x y\"")
or
(call-process "c:/path with space/foo-bar.bat" nil t t "x" "y")
