How can I set up access via svn+ssh on Windows?

AHA!

That works -- both methods! And, strangely enough, no double quotes
are necessary, either. (Weird, I thought I had tried forward slashes in all
possible ways... The moon must have changed phase... :-)

If anyone working with the documentation is listenting:
This is not covered terribly well, please take note.

Also, note for the improvement of the install/uninstall kit for Windows:
Add (or remove) the path to the installed binaries (e.g. svn.exe) to the
PATH system environment variable.

TortoisePlink.exe works, but pops up an annoying box asking for password
- twice. I have also tried setting SVN_SSH=c:/Program Files/PuTTY/plink.exe
and that seems to be possible; no error messages from cvs co. However,
it just hangs, and never asks for password. Shouldn't it prompt for password
on the command line?

Many thanks, Kevin and others!
