The wording of my suggestion was a little short :-)
I didn't want to suggest to install the script automatically.
The webware distribution already has a somewhat generic start script. It 
would be helpfull (at least I think) to have such a script with the path to 
the AppWorkDir filled in, maybe some suggestion of a AppWorkDir specific 
logfile, etc.
