windows - Running a batch file command with arguments

I'm creating a script to do some repetitious OpenSSL work, but cannot seem to get the batch file to execute the commands.


Once the file has navigated to the correct directory, I try running:


openssl x509 /in:in_cert.cer /inform:DER /out:out_cert.pem /outform:PEM

...but the batch file can't seem to handle it. The slash/colon approach was added after research.


The issue seems to be around the arguments, resulting in an unknown option /in:in_cert.cer error. Note that I've also tried the standard -parameter argument approach as well.


Where am I going wrong with the batch?




Update: the issue isn't in the command itself (I can run it standalone from the command line with -'s instead of /'s... it's getting the command to run within a batch file.
