Resending a copy since the previous one was apparently silently dropped by
the SPAM filter.  Apologies in advance if both make it through.

Hmm, apparently just saying that the files are attached doesn't make my
mail client actually attach them...  Who knew?

A few additions to the above:
- turns out I also had a "view.bat" (attached as well)
- there's no need to make the .bat files executable -- CMD doesn't care,
  and Cygwin won't be confused that way
- the way they are written now, they'll only work with CMD.EXE (i.e., not
  on Win9x/ME) -- I have yet to find a way to do what needs to be done
  using command.com's retarded command set

Hope this helps someone,
	Igor
P.S. In the hopes to get this past the SPAM filter, the files are named
.batch instead of .bat.  Just rename after downloading.
