Ok, I guess I was confused because I was looking at the test cases with 
the shell, (using echo "foo") to get rid of the backslashes. I've 
updated the repository so all the test cases now work.

I think the next thing to do is handle invalid input: eg unclosed 
quotes, right now that causes a segfault. I'm not sure what the 
appropriate way of signalling an error would be.
