YUI compressor 2.4.7 can't compress js files

I used this command:

java -jar yuicompressor-2.4.7.jar -o '.js$:-min.js' *.js

and I got 0KB file named '.js$ on windows 7

why?

what should I do to compress batch js files?

The following command worked for me (on Win7 without any quote), but I have no idea why.

java -jar yuicompressor-2.4.7.jar -o .js$:-min.js *.js

It would be really appreciated if anybody could share some insight. Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

I've created a simple batch file (name it as test.bat) with the following contents trying to figure out what actually happens.

@echo off
for %%a in (%*) do (
echo %%a
)

When I run it with test.bat -o '.js$:-min.js' *s, it gave out something like this:

-o
'.js$:-min.js'
fb.js
test.cs
test.js

So I think the command prompt doesn't process the quotation marks in the way of *nix.
