expand_environmentis flawed; because it splits the input on "%" there can be improper boundary detection. For example, given input with back-to-back variables like "%HOMEDIR%%HOMEPATH%".Instead, we walk the string one character at a time and properly tokenize the variables. This still account for the malformed example in Kyle's original comment ("For strings such as "%MyVar%MyVar%", only the first occurrence should be replaced").
