IIRC MSDOS has supported both slashes ( forward and backwards, / and \
) since 2.0, the first version with directories support.

Also, IIRC, they just added \ because of CP/M. CPM used /, not - for
options, MSDOS 1 copied it and in MSDOS 2 you needed a way to express
a path which would not be confused with an option.

So, better use /, case correct paths with are valid in both.
