hi, i'm not sure whether anybody has really noticed small little
"bug" before (since i didn't notice this in the user list archive;
but then again i don't have the time to do an exhaustive search myself
as i am rather busy nowadays with (what else?) work...)

I'm referring to the tomcat 3.2.1 win32 distribution.

it appears that there is some problem with running the batch
file if you just type "tomcat" (without any other parameters
like "start," etc.)

the offending line is the line which begins with
echo Usage: tomcat ( start ^| ....

apparently "echo" treats this line as a recursive call
to tomcat.bat all over again because of the brackets. So an
unaware user will be caught out of the blue and not be able 
to see the echo help at atll.

Solution?

enclose the line in quotes instead...

echo "Usage: tomcat ( start ....."
