I admit that XEP's current behaviour is overly restricting.
We will reconsider this point in future releases, and
probably implement it your way (no commitment though:
we have to contemplate it a bit more).

Yep, it's a known problem of command-line tokenizer under Windows.
If you have a foobar.bat with the following:
echo [1] %1
echo [2] %2
and invoke it:
foobar.bat -DVALIDATE=false
then you will get:
[1] -DVALIDATE
[2] false
To avoid this, it is enough to quote the whole expression:
c:\XEP\run.bat "-DVALIDATE=false" workflow.fo
(However, I suggest using "-DDISCARD_IF_NOT_VALID=false" instead :-)).
Best regards,
Nikolai Grigoriev
