I'm currently looking into what would be required for something like a symlink to wcmd.exe, but at the same time I'm wondering the historical reasons for choosing 'wcmd' and if it should be changed to just 'cmd'.
Yes, I think it should be renamed to cmd.exe, at this point it's supposed to be a complete replacement.
It's a ~500k patch to rename programs/wcmd to programs/cmd so I want to get this as right as possible prior to submitting a patch. How much of wcmd's identity should remain? That is--should it be a wholesale s/wcmd/cmd or should wcmd keep the name wcmd with just the executable name changed?
