Hi Glenn,

I have a question for you about skynav FOP.  Why on Windows do you use ".cmd" 
as the extension of the fop command file - fop.cmd, rather than fop.bat?

We are going to be deploying skynav FOP at many sites and it would be great if 
we could rename the ".cmd" file to a ".bat" file since it would require fewer 
changes to our interface code.

Doing some research it seems that on Windows 7, Vista, and XP there is little 
difference between ".cmd" and ".bat" files, and differences only become 
significant on Windows 98.  Am I wrong?  Did I misread an article on the Web?

Thanks for the excellent work you have done!  Our Middle Eastern team tested 
your code and found nothing wrong with it in the context of our reporting tool, 
which calls FOP to do rendering.
