Yes invoking the commands is easy which is what is nice about the protocol.  
Just bit myself by using my pre-existing UriLoader to handle the GET requests 
and forgetting that it would automatically cache the responses.  Though I think 
part of the logic behind this design choice originally was that if the server 
returns ETags then the loader does conditional GETs.
Made sure the cache gets invalidated in the appropriate places and all my unit 
tests for Fuseki integration now run fine :-)

Batch scripts to invoke a jar would work as you'd hope if someone was trying to 
run Fuseki that they'd have Java installed already.

curl is a possibility but not sure whether the average user would have it 
installed.  Even I have never bothered to install curl on a Windows machine.

Might code up a command line utility myself to add to my existing Toolkit [1] 
and you could point to that for Windows users in the future?  Will keep you 
posted if you are interested?

Rob,

Glad this is sorted out.

The SOH scripts are in ruby, although only tested on Linux.  I'd like to 
ship something for Windows as well (or point to other tools - there are 
some around but look like they are Linux-y).

What can be relied on Windows for command use?  I was hoping to not ship 
java client-side code but it would not be hard to produce a single jar 
of commands that some bat scripts could call.  Invocation of the 
protocol operations isn't hard (that's the point!)

I'm slowly building up curl commands - that's a possibility.  Is it 
practical?

        Andy
