...and if you're a windowz fanatic, you still have hope. You can download a copy of touch from:

ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Services/TechNet/samples/ps/win98/Reskit/FILE/

(TOUCH.EXE, is what you're looking for)

or you could simply install Cygwin, the greatest unix emulator on the face of this planet! (Sorry, couldn't resist)

The touch command is on Unix OS'es. It hasn't got anything to do with
tomcat. What it does is it updates (among other things) the last modified

of a file, but in your case the purpose is (at least if my head is screwed
on right)
to trigger Tomcat into detecting a file change in the work directory, hence
doing a reload.
If I got the Tomcat bit wrong, shoot at the bright red target on my
forehead :)
