May I put in a request --

Please please see if you can get Mozilla (one way or another) to
accept a "helper app" whose name ends in .cmd.  [The way I have set
up my OS/2 system, the great majority of my application programs
are invoked through .cmd files.]  Netscape does accept .cmd files
as helper apps.

Last time I was checking things out in this area, when I specified
'z.exe' as a helper application I __was__ able to get a shoutcast
audio stream, from the web, to come out on my speakers.

But when I tried the SAME setup, changing *only* the helper app name
to 'zzz.cmd' (where 'zzz.cmd' then called 'z.exe'), Mozilla/2 would
__NOT__ dispatch 'zzz.cmd'.


Please please,
mikus
